Mukambika, Asthua. Kiln firing

 I packed my pots with shelves and posts made out of bricks.

 Stuffed saw dust, cow dung cakes and newspaper in between the ware. Made a make shift kiln with red bricks. Used clay to fill the gaps in between the bricks.

 A pair of roof tiles (khapara) became the chimney to my updraft terracotta kiln.

 I started firing at 4pm, with mango wood and some random twigs. Nearly in four hours I got a good colour in the chamber.

 Closed the kiln at 930pm, after the last logs of wood had burnt down.

 My little damper. :)

 The kiln cooled in two days.
