Primitive Adobe Kiln for Firing Pottery (Season 2, episode 10)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 лис 2023
- Primitive elements of earth, water and fire are the basic foundation for my hut and almost everything I make. In this video I use those elements to build a kiln for firing pottery. This kiln is larger than the Dakota fire hole that I have previously used and will allow me to make larger pots and also achieve higher heat. Enjoy the ASMR sounds as I take you through the complete process to build this kiln.

I am glad to see that you have started the new building project, and I hope that you can turn this place into a small village with various facilities. I hope you keep doing it for another 20 years. Your audience will always be with you.😃
i imagine in 20 years it will be more like " plutonium makes excellent fuel for my primitive spaceship " :P
@@venix20😅😅😅
A village is on the way. You will see.
That is very exciting to read! I believe you!@@ChadZuberAdventures
What you pulled up is Escobar de la Verbera. Such a common medical it is often overlooked. Michael Moore speaks highly of it in Medicinal Plants of the Desert and Canyon West. You would really enjoy the tea. Pick when the yellow flowers are full - in the spring. A hand full boiled in a quart of water for 20 minutes and added to a bath - is excellent at relieving body aches.
I looked up that name and got no plants. Can you double check the name?
Did they mean this plant...escobaria vivipara@@ChadZuberAdventures
@@ChadZuberAdventuresEscobar de la Virbora - sorry Gutierrezia spp. Composite. G. sarothrae, G. californica, G. lucida.
You can also use this kiln for cooking, boiling water, and barbequing. You need to make a gas stove grate/grill out of clay, or any metal your find out there to put a pot on. Great job Chad on building such a cool kiln! :) A lot of people call the kiln you just made a "brick rocket stove."
The quality of the Primal Tendencies videos is amazing. You trully are creating something great.
Thank you so much!
Similar sensation as last video, this one was even more dinamic 😁👍
This was a great build and timely. With everything snarky going on around the place with various conflicts headlining the news its nice to get back to thinking about meeting simple needs like building something creative to make other creative things. Creative men and women like you are the true inspiration of our age,👍 and long after the guns have gone silent, someone is gonna sit up somewhere on earth and say, hey do you remember that adobe kiln chad made on UA-cam, thats what we should make😆 great video 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
And this kiln is just a tool for bigger things.
@@ChadZuberAdventuresI'm sure that others have said this already but making the chimney taller will pull an even stronger draught due to a greater pressure differential over that greater distance. Also, it would be good to grind off the protruding edges of the bricks with a rough rock. This will make the exterior more cylindrical and you can then more easily coat it with another layer of mud to protect it from the rain more. And eventually I anticipate a ceramic tile roof for this... if only there was a large kiln to fire all of those tiles ! 😜 keep up the amazing work !! Stay safe out there Chad !
Looking forward to the next project, I really really like that you do everthing by hand and lets say "the old way". Thank you for the hard work! I like bushcraft anyway and was watching some channels but many many are a fraud. Using modern equipment behind the scenes. Yours feels authentic, sure it is hard work but it is rewarding to see you prgress. So Thank you for filming it and uploading
Yeah, it's hard work. I worked really hard on this one. I had to rest a couple days after because my hands were sore and tore up. But that makes me stronger.
Дядька, мой вам риспект. я вам скажу, что вы более живой, чем другой ваш конкурент блоггер из Primitive Technologies (or Technology). Попробовал жить как вы, но далеко в точности, а просто в гараже. Можно заплакать. А тот железный человек прям, наука. Короче я вам обоих люблю. Думаю вы просто живёте так, а он ставит эксперименты
Большое спасибо. Мне нравится так жить. Это сложно и ответственно, но и очень полезно.
YAAAAAY! A NEW VIDEO! especially on pottery ❤🎉
Hope you enjoyed it!
Great video again. You are making great progress. This is real survival. 😀🖖👍
The most beautiful and best channel🇮🇶🇮🇶
Amazing, calming and pleasant video.
Thank You for inspiring me to gather clay and process it with my little daughter into nice pottery and figurines! This made us more happy!
Wonderful! I really want to make more pottery.
Hey Chad I'm glad you've made a kiln for your pottery - it's going to make creating floor tiles a LOT easier. One thing I'd suggest is getting your fuel off the ground. Just a couple of bricks with crossbars going across can make a huge difference in your time to fire and your fuel efficiency.
Obviously the build itself is beautiful and making it round sounded unnecessarily complicated, but it made it so much prettier. Looking forward to all the great pottery you will make with this one.
Yeah the main reason I built it is because I want to fire bigger pieces. Also, making it round has an important benefit because that way the heat reflects from the sides and it’s focused in the center. At least that’s my theory.
This was an amazing build. Cheers, Chad! ✌️
Everything you do is incredible! Other primitive channels are good but you take everything to the next level with the quality of the projects you do and the quality of the videos!! Thank you very much. I make sure to watch the ads on your videos
Ps. You can use pottery in the microwave.
have you check Primitive Technology UA-cam channel yet???😅😅😅
@@huntrezz01 yes, chads is way better and interesting
I also watch the Ads, to give him more $$!😊
Thanks a lot. By the way, I don't use microwaves.
That was very enjoyable to watch, and see what you've accomplished. I'm looking forward to seeing what you build next. You may want to consider implementing a simple filtration method that will help you filter out the finer clay from the dirt and soil, in order to refine your building materials.
For finer clay I sift it with a basket. That's what I use for making pottery.
I’d like to go out and do this, not sure where I could though
Thanks for the amazing content😊
I am so looking forward to see your pottery work! I am a big fan of your artisan works, including stone knapping that we didn't have any update for so long!
That was one sick timelapse! Kiln turned out very cool. You are already a pro in primitive bricklaying.
Loooooong timelapse. It's so difficult to shoot a video when working with mud because I have to wash my hands with water after every shot before I tough the camera. It takes so long. It's just much easier to set up for a timelapse.
@@ChadZuberAdventuresI thought about the muddy hands and camera while watching this video also :D. You always put so much effort!
VIDEO SUGGESTION:
Perhaps you could make a video making and trying different stone age weapons and tools like the Aztec stone sword or primitive wooden shields.
oh yeah, i'd love that
I am slowly getting to that. I've been collecting materials.
As always Chad, an absolutely amazing episode...
My only gripe is there is never enough lol. I could watch these kinds of survival videos all day long, most especially yours... and unfortunately iv already binged all of your content >_< lol.
Ever since i started watching your videos i have really gotten the itch to get out there and build something awesome, but unfortunately there really arent many areas i can go and do this type of survival building. One of these days some random woods shall be graced with my presence and a glorious shelter shall be created.
You'd be surprised what places you may be able to find if you just get out there and start roaming.
Amazing project! It is incredible what you can do with a few things
Another amazing video from our primitive friend, Chad! Greetings from Pavle from Serbia
Greetings to you.
I love how you compare thee kilm to a rocket going into space 🚀
Egyptians love these things and I used to watch 9 episodes a day until the episodes ended and I wanted more of them inside the hut
I'm trying to make more!
Hello! Another new adventure. So happy❤
Hope you enjoy!
Its good to be present in there..
Wow super construction 🚧 i like this ❤❤❤
Чад!
Мы, все твои подписчики, -все поддерживаем тебя, желаем крепкого здоровья, счастья и благополучия!!!
Пожалуйста, оставайся с нами, как можно дольше!🙏
Большое спасибо. Я очень ценю ваши добрые слова.
Awesome mr. Chad.... Love and peace from Indonesia 🙏🏻
Peace be with you
Hi Chad! The stove turned out to be good. I understand that it is for firing clay, but I would like to see how you prepare some traditional Mexican dish using this stove.
I would have to make a large comal to cook tortillas on.
Nice kiln!. I. Would love to see you make a spear for fish catching. Or better yet your a master weaver. Make a fishing net. I 💕 your content!
I made a woven fish trap earlier this year.
Nice kiln Chad
Nice kiln Chad 👍🏻
Thanks, Chad. Can’t wait to see your new project get off the ground.
👏👏👏 Gracias Chad!💙
I am always fascinated by all things pottery. The precision with which you build is great.
" It's amazing what you can make with a little dirt and water."
Simple, but profound.
When I built the hut I didn't measure anything but I wanted to make sure that I kept a constant size inside the kiln so I will be able to set the grill in there later.
@@ChadZuberAdventuresif any parts of the interior are too narrow for the grill then you can simply grind that section down with a strong rough rock !! The same idea applies to the outside surface as well ! And even the grill itself can be resized to be smaller as needed !! Its easy to make adobe smaller , but its not easy to make a brick larger... within reason. However mortar works wonders !! Lol
Another good video my fish story telling friend.
Take care.
Thanks Duane!
Chad cool video, I felt relaxed and calm. I'm looking forward to many future projects because you are great to watch.
Thanks a lot!
Admirable trabajo y talento Chad. Un gran progreso!!
Gracias!
That's great, bro❤
I have watched all the episodes of Primal Tendencies and I want more of them. Please, many of them. I am following you from Egypt
Thank you very much!
been waiting for this!!!
Can't wait for that Pottery projects 👍
Me too
Great videos tyvm
world class content
Brad pit returns!
This is great
Emeğinize sağlık. Güzel bir paylaşım.
Amazing work my friend!
Thanks a lot!
I had a thought about the fire grate for the kiln. Next time, consider using short chunks of stick, embedded in the mud, to pre-create the holes as you pack the mud into position? Let it dry a day or so, then pull the sticks out, forming the holes in a way that will minimize the pressure-created cracks of trying to push a stick into the partially dried mud?
You’re absolutely right. I had thought of that after. I will do it that way the next time. I also need to make a small grill for the fireplace in the hut.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Even though you're physically doing all these tasks on your own, I love how you can still have the collective brainpower of so many people asking questions and offering suggestions on things to do. Sometimes the ideas are good, sometimes they don't work out so well, but you have a global village helping you consider things from different viewpoints, and confirming ideas you've had on your own. Humans are a social survival species; we survive so much better when we cooperate with and help out each other, sharing our thoughts and ideas.
I think that's why so many of us love watching your Primal Tendencies series so much. We get to enthuse right along with you in the video comments, even if we aren't there to help you in the actual working and filming. We're cheering you on!
I was waiting for this
Great!
very cool my man. you rock...or dirt awesomely
I dirt! Hahaha
Chad desde España un saludo, siempre aprendo cosas de sus vídeos, gracias por sus clases
Saludooooossss!
You know I have never heard you talk, but you have a nice voice. Also, you should make a clay colander, so if you ever try to make noodles or something, you have what you need.
I use a basket as a colander. It works perfectly well.
Love ur content man
Thanks
Hello im your silent subscriber from Philippines
Well now you're not so silent.
just started watching now XD
10am at brazil
2Pm In Europe
Tôi đang cố gắng để trở thành bản sao của anh trai Chad❤
Bạn nên tốt hơn tôi.
Nice
Tôi thích xem anh Chad sinh tồn nguyên thủy ^^
🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
Cám ơn bạn tôi.
Oi, bom te ver na ativa! Cara eu faria a cabana pertinho do rio, assim eu cultivava alimentos sem cansar para pegar água longe!💋🇧🇷
Eu gosto de morar aqui.
Dear Mr. Zuber.
👍👌👏 Oh WOW, what a huge amount of effort. The skin on your fingers must be worn off badly. I'm very eagerly looking forward to watch the killn in function. And what kind of different pottery you will burn of course. Hope that the big clay/mud rost with the holes in it will survive. I also hope that you could get rid of the fox or whatever it was.
As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health in particular.
Thank you! Yeah, my hands were pretty rough after this. That was the most bricks I ever laid in one day.
@@ChadZuberAdventures
You're welcome, it's my pleasure.
Thanks for replying. I always and totally appreciate it.
Sincerely yours
Lovely kiln. It looks well made even though the process had some minor errors. One thing I think you can do is use that kiln as a grill or smoke stack whenever you're not making pottery. I think you could even use it to heat up rocks or other kinds of hard-processed resources to get various types of materials.
But that is just my imagination speaking. I have no clue if it would even be possible to do that with such a kiln.
Still, I love the kiln and I think you can make some very decent pottery with it. It reminds me of a Romano-British kiln shown on Time Team. Or was it Anglo-Saxon? Cannot remember. They showed a lot of kilns in their programs and I think they could be of interest or even inspiration to you.
Thanks. Could you please point out the errors? I didn't do any research or look at construction methods of other kilns before doing this. I know there are different styles of kilns but this one is more of an advanced adaptation of the Dakota fire hole. I figured this style would allow for more air flow and thus higher temperature. It certainly lit way faster than the Dakota fire hole I made and this kiln is much more spacious inside for the large pottery I want to make.
Tried to send a message last night when my internet crashed exactly as I posted it.
But in short terms. I was commenting on how your first attempt at the mud plate with holes got ruined and how you quickly fixed it.
I have seen a lot of historical documentaries and a lot of kilns are found in these. Time Team is my favorite archeology documentary after all.
But historically kilns are often found to be dome shaped, and made up of adobe mud stacked on top of a woven basket that is left to dry, leaving the top open. After you fill it with pottery you put mud on top and seal it up. And then you bake the pottery after which you break the kiln apart to retrieve the pottery after it is done.
Those were mostly stone age and bronze age kilns but the designs have been reused for thousands and thousands of years. Even some iron age people used those.
Kilns would later change and become reusable with bricks and made to such sizes they could be used to make large objects. Becoming more box shaped.
I do not know much about cylindrical kilns but from what I learned about pottery, that I still remember, and what my father told me. The airflow and space for the pottery is the most important part of it.
If the opening of air is too big your kiln will not become hot enough to bake the pottery evenly. Uneven airflow will cool down the pottery and possibly cause it to fracture as cool winds push the hot air out and lower the temperature in different parts of the kiln.
That is why many kilns have small openings to let out the air. However, some kilns only have a singular hole for both heat and air to keep the air from cooling down the pottery.
I believe, but don't quote me on this. That the hole where air leaves needs to be as small or smaller than where air gets in. As to contain the heat and control the air flow.
This is by no means an expert's point of view. But just my own assumptions from watching history/archeology documentaries and my two years of studying pottery in high school. Which was over ten years ago so don't take my word as truth. I do not know if it is.@@ChadZuberAdventures
Probably be able to use the residual heat after a good firing to cook with, similar to a tandoor.
No doubt about that
The flow of water in dry land will soften the soil and make it walkable, and you only need to use a stick to dig the soil a little to guide it. The water on the way is green and when you reach the cottage, you can water the vegetable garden
I'm sorry but that will not work.
Very awesome job tarzan you put a lot of work into this :)
Thanks a ton!
@@ChadZuberAdventures you're welcome I might have to get one of your pots too :)
Здравствуй доисторический челловек с Go Pro😅.
У меня вопрос!
Обследовал ли ты свою территорию в поисках лучшего отложения глины.??
И будет ли в саманной хижине какая то дверь?
Increíble tu nuevo horno Chad ,puedes con esos ladrillos hasta construir un castillo.medieval,hasta puedes hacer una tina de greda,calentar bastante agua para darte un baño de agua caliente tipo spa .🙌🔥💪Te felicito¡Eres increíble amigo!!
Jajaja, yo pensé eso. Quiero construir un torre muy alto con una escalera. Eso sería genial.
nice
Menurut ku ini adalah sebuah node bagus jika suatu saat akan terjadi perang dunia ,kita bisa membuat rumah sendiri untuk bertahan hidup sementara dan menunggu semua usai👍👍👍👍good idea
Ya, ada baiknya untuk bersiap.
Estava lembrando sinto falta de uma aventura seu com seu cachorrinho
Eu tambem sinto falta de uma aventura com Rufo.
I hope, one day.u make some build import...like store or anything⚒️🛠️😆😆😆😄...
Me encantaría ver un episodio en el que hagas vasijas grandes para tener agua ❤❤
Ese fue uno de los motivos para construir este horno.
Bro is Time Traveler
❤❤❤❤❤
Hey Chad! One question, out of curiosity: how do you get water while filming the videos?
Edit: nevermind, I'm already at the part of the video where you are at the river.
Anyway, are there any other ways to get water when the dry season strikes?
One reason I made this kiln is to make large water vessels to store water. Water storage is the only way to keep easy access to water here. The spring has water when there is enough rain but it hasn't rained for almost two months so it is dry now.
Nice video love from Pakistan 🇵🇰❤️
Greetings to you in Pakistan.
Save the bones, even if they break! It's a source of calcium, handy for farming and mortar.
Yes, all scraps go into the compost pile.
very cool . you should think about using tiles to use as shingles for your roof on the hut . they would be safer and hold in heat better and rain out better .
That would be really difficult because the branches of the roof are all crooked. There are no straight branches out here.
@@ChadZuberAdventures you know the cool thing about wood is that it can be heat bended or steam bended . but yeah ok i get it its hard but it would be alot better .
Watched a video on making a sleigh (I think it was native artic indigenous) and the heat/steam bending they did with the wood was cool.@@diydarkmatter
Hello, a question from a long time fan, will we see the making of a set of stone tools this season? I remember you once answered that you thought about the practice of splitting stones.
I’ve been using stone tools for a long time. I just haven’t made ornamental stone tools like people keep asking because they aren’t practical but I will do it for you to see.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello Chad. Is it possible to make, protect and grow some garden for food? That is the second most important thing beside the free water flow you fetched water from. I am so glad to see you making lot out of dirt n water as you said
You can improve it if you put a small vault on top to make bread, but remember to make the mouth to introduce the bread on the side so that it does not smoke, the yeast is made with the same material but fermented see meg military survival manual 0003
Many years ago I used to make my own bread from whole wheat berries. It was very good.
INDIO DOURADO abraços ❤te amo🎉seus videos são uma delicia de ver❤
chad what is your experience or opinion on stone vessals and smooth stone axe hammers, are they something your would like a go at making or do you think the time commitment for them may be too much to fit your purposes?
A stone vessel is really tough to make using primitive methods. Clay is far easier and faster. A stone axe is great if it is made really well and with the right kind of stone. The stone here wears fast. It's not that hard therefore an axe would need to be replaced rather frequently.
Fox wants food fox shall take food when human isnt looking
Anyway if you want to deal with it without hurting it build a brick structure around the compost with a heavy lid
As for the garden that lil friend shaped bugger will dig untill it cant get food from it
I wanna see this guy build an all natural liquor still
I totally want to do that. I do fermentations all the time.
@@ChadZuberAdventures can't wait to see how it's done
@@ChadZuberAdventures they believe the inventor of American whiskey George Thorpe made a still out of Indian ceramic potting over 400 years ago there's paintings of it, id like to give it a go myself but I don't have access to clay like that
Have you seen this channel called Primitive Technology? It would be nice to see content like his on your channel, where instead of showing your journey or day to day life, you would show some kind of technology you made like in this video
Yeah, I know that channel. The problem for me is that I really live this life a lot of the time and that makes it hard to do big projects like him because I spend so much time on just living.
👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Chad ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
VIDEO SUGGESTION:
Greate project. Are those tiles and pottery will be colored with some local primitive pigments? It is good idea for a episode🏺✨
I have to learn about pigments. Yeah, that's a great idea but I have no experience with that. I'll have to learn first.
Chad, have you seen John Plant's experiments with clay tuyers and forced air for metal work? if you go around the desert to pick up trash, I imagine there is a LOT of old rusty Iron you could use to make a shovel. Not only would that be a cool video, but you'd also be helping mother earth!
There is literally nothing out here to smelt. This is stone age territory but maybe I can find some stuff elsewhere.
@@ChadZuberAdventures what about the rocks themselves? Do you have any friends who are rock hounds, or geologists? Maybe you walk over the rocks you need every day! I have no idea. I’ve seen some sandstone type of material in your videos.
I know one geologist but he’s not near here. Nobody is near this place. I will have to research this on my own.
@@ChadZuberAdventures well I suppose you could make a stone shovel, if you find a flat stone, or can flint knap.
@mattparker9726 That would be heavy. The bone one works for basic shovelling purposes. It broke because I was smacking it on the hard clay. You see everything has a specific purpose. I should have used a rock for compacting the clay and not the bone shovel.
Shoes and feet a pretty big thing in the Indian time, cowboy boots, Indian moccasins.. you used a shoe string with the mule fire ect.. anyway I was curious of information
I used a leather strap. I’ll make shoes when I have time.
Vida natural só os fortes sobrevivem
É a verdade
Olá, Chand, que bacana seu trabalho, quais são as medidas dos tijolos adobe?
Mais ou menos 30 cm x 30 cm.
