The Kiln Book

No matter what type of kiln you plan to build or what type of fuel you plan to use, The Kiln Book will help you understand what it takes to successfully harness the heat you need to fire your work and get the effects you’re looking for.

Fred Olsen is one of the leading pioneers in explaining everything about kilns to the studio potter and his book is one of the best references on the topic. This book covers it all from refractory materials and applications to design principles and construction techniques.
