Description
here they made a kils. Most likely I missed spelled the name here; anyway i do not know the name of this type of fireing or if it good for plates to eat off of or what. I asked no questions. Anyway I had no paper and pen to write it down and I would have forgot what they told me most likely lol.
I did not see them put the pottery in the kil I got there as they was fireing it up on saturday at dust time and I got bake to the place on Sundayand it was taken apart as you see in the last photo. The pottery on the table is what came out of it. All i know is this a old way of doing it and no air was blown in on the pottery.
One ask if my Dad smoked. No he did not; I do not also. My dad did not drink beer of any type drinks to get drunk. I stop that years ago. he 92 years old. Guess his body is breaking down. he do ride on a one wheel bike that do not move. he do other stuff to keep in shape too.
thanks for looking and comments

That is a interesting kiln and some beautiful pottery there on the table. My dad will turn 91 next month he was in and out of the hospital this year but is doing good now. Hope your dad gets well soon.

Wonderful close-ups of the coals, Jocko!

Great photos, and good information! Thank you!
A wonderful collage and documentation of this process Jock!
My sister makes pottery this way. Excellent shots of the process!
So interesting! I like the series of images to show the procedure. Excellent.
They got it fired up red hot.... Aloha
Fantastic collage, sorry I'm so late with comments but this is great !
Fantastic composition, it looks like a great day out
Awesome shots! Must be difficult to get a good firing as I don't see how they can keep a steady hot fire going. Guess they know what they are doing though, and you're right, this is the old, old way of doing it. You're dad must be one heck of guy, still so active at his age! WOW!!
Great coolage and lovely pottery it's a lot of work!!
Very interesting documentary series! Thanks for sharing!
