Is it possible to bonfire non bisqued papercrete (with grog) tiles.
Is it worth the effort?
Thanks,Sasha

What is papercrete? Do you mean paper clay?
Yes, you can put them in a bonfire.
Totally dry, at bottom of fire, covered with shards of fired clay or pieces
of metal.

Sorry,mistake.Paperclay is what I wanted to say.Papercrete is a cement-paper
mix.
Can you explain it a little bit more?Have you try something like this?
Thanks ,Sasha

Yes, I've fired paperclay in pit firing, sawdust firing and in raku.
Rather than going into a lengthy explanation of each technique, I'd suggest
you do a web search for "pit firing" and you'll find many sites with
explanations and images.
