Yes, you can, but you won't get a very high temperature--however, often =
suitable
for raku work. You can even fire on your gas grill. Take a look at Michael
Casson's book =22The Craft of the Potter=22 (c1997 published by Barron's, =
ISBN
0-8120-2028-6 =2416.95 US). On pp 94-98 he shows a little teeny brick kiln
(smaller than a lot of bbq pits).

Hello,
I am a novice. But am interested in keeping things as simple as possible.
I've read about pit-firing and wood-firing (not realistic options where I
live)...Is there a simple, home-made way to fire in an above ground brick
oven? Similar to the old-fashioned backyard BBQ pits? Any suggestions on
where to find resources, plans...anything? Or am I oversimplifying?
Thanks=21=21=21
