Noel Plowman, President of Hamilton Potters Guild,
showing the
gas fired Clam Shell Raku Kiln
owned by the guild, in 2002. |
Robert and Christine first saw this design, and got a copy
of the plans, in 1991 when Robert was giving a workshop at the
Rotoroua Potter Club. |

A good welder is the key in getting a nice hinge to make
this design function well. Also by reinforcing the cut edges of the drum,
you can add to
the strength of the kilns structure. |
|
A more advanced design than most clam shell kilns, the potter
who built this kiln threw a chimney flue and attached it to the top of the
drum. |
