A Classic experiment

<< < (21/23) > >>

bjrogg:
I really was hoping to follow this experiment also. If I'm understanding right the fire burned for 2 days but no noticeable change in stone? I was hoping to try this myself. Do you think it would have worked better to scrape coals and ash off after 1st day and restart fire again? Have Zero experience at this but have researched it a bit and some folks used a 2 fire method.

I heard the backfill material was damp.

Pappy:
I think we put to much over it, but I was just following James instructions.  ;)

I would be willing to come early next year and help set up the heat treating pit.
