Firebox feed door slides out of the way when stoking this wood fired kiln.

When the car is out of the kiln, there is a series of shelving (seen at right) that is off the cart, where the entrance flue comes into the glost chamber.
 This allows loading pots in awkward areas that would have been difficult to have on a car.

 

This is one of the only wood fired "CAR" kilns that Robert has seen.
