The advantage of the design is that it is portable, and can be fired easily with one person.  The size works well for most potters firing Raku.

On his return to the USA, Robert gave the pattern to Bob Green and Jeremy Ayers,, both of whom made Clam Shell Kilns based on the pattern.  Both potters made modifications encouraged by their respective welders, who cut and fused the metalwork.

Any kiln design should be thought of as a starting point for the individual potter who wants to build their own kiln.  Talk to potters who are using a kiln design you have interest in building, and ask them what improvements they might suggest based on their experiences.
