Wood Fired Kiln Project

Post date: Mar 01, 2011 5:31:34 PM

"Woden" - the project being undertaken by some of the DPG members is getting going again, after a dormant period. The bricks and other materials have been moved to the kiln site and timber fuel has started to be stock piled.

The site is being leveled and a concrete slab will be poured to form a good base.

The kiln design is based on Joe Finch's kiln, described in his book and on the website :-

The owner of the site has asked for "No publicity" about its location, to avoid encouraging unwanted visitors!

Any potter who is interested in the project - building the kiln or using it - can request to be included in an email list, used to send out alerts about activities. bill@upweypotters.com
