Pit Fire Notes

My excitement can turn to anticipation anxiety on most projects. In my mind I have a desire to have a Pit Fire built on my property. Initial thoughts were ‘dig a big hole’…

And then my Master Potter mentioned a basic setup involving a structure with a shaft (at ground level or thereabouts) to feed the fire.. I’ve seen a photo of one but questions remained… “Where to find the materials”, “How much is that going to cost”, “Can I find plans online”.. etc.

I did find a sense of relief and more excitement when I read this person’s blog recently – check it out! https://ellisonbaypottery.wordpress.com/pit-firing-at-ellison-bay-pottery/
