Pottery brick kiln wood firing, 1/10/10

My latest pottery and brick kiln. Built in Flora, Indiana. Specializing in wood fired brickmaking, tiles, and salt glazed pottery made from locally dug up clays. Still learning alot at this point. Getting the process and science involed to do all this worked out. Hope to make some better pottery in the future.

I havnt been able to work on the tanks for awhile, without a good workshop. I still want to get back to them this summer.

the kiln works did you use fire bricks? like the door . a vacum cleaner on blow might be better it would run hours before burning out plus more controll of air. so few pots for so much effort ,well done .take care not to blow your self up.

I just noticed the hairdryer...do you think it is effective?

thanks. What temperature do you get this kiln to? I like the door, by the way. Nice grey granite colours.

Far cry from the Tank video's, but interesting anyway. Got to ask, why the kiln interest?
