1999 A style of kiln popular with potters looking to make
Anagama like pots
without the extending firings.
These kilns are designed for non glazed wares, as pots sit in coals and
the surface effects are similar to those of many days firings in anagama
kilns.

next to "Train" or "Coffin" Kiln |
 |
 |
|
Sometimes called a Coffin Kiln, because it is about the
same size and shape as a coffin, other potters refer to it as a Train Kiln. |
The basic design is such that an oversized
firebox is at one end and the chimney stands at the other end of a
rectangular box with a flip top lid. |
 |
 |
| Fire, ash and coals enter from the firebox at
left thru the arched flue |
Flames exit via the checker board flues at the
other end leading into the chimney. |
