anvil Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Be aware that if your fire clay absorbs moisture, if it actually does, when you heat it up the moisture will turn to steam and chips of fire clay will fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donal Harris Posted March 28, 2022 Author Share Posted March 28, 2022 I don’t really have it lined with fire clay. More what I would call, “fire dirt”. I would have to drive out of town to find clay, and wanting to see how well the shallower pot worked, I just busted up a small scoop of dirt and packed it in the holes. But yes, it did spit out quite a lot of sparks when I used it after the last rain. The shallower pot is much better. In a few weeks I will take it back to my dad’s place and patch the top with pieces of scrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
