plan with us was to build up cone-shaped 
kilns, plaster over with one flue in the 
center, put in fuel from one side in the 
opening, as large as a man could get in

under the cross irons. We used wood 
six or eight feet long, according to the 
size of the kiln. The kilns, as nearly 
as I can remember, were about 10x12 feet 
at the base. 
Another plan was to build the kiln up 
16 feet square with two egg-shaped flues,
