Hi there! In this video I go through all the steps I took to build my own Raku Kiln out of a *galvanized steel garbage can! The materials I use are listed below. Thanks so much for watching!
Please note Heating up galvanized steel can release zinc fumes that can be harmful to breath in. I made this kiln with that material prior to understanding the potential health risks. If you are building one similar I would recommend using un-galvanized steel.
If you would like to skip the introduction to the materials the building begins at 5:30.
