The chimney is done at last. You can see by this photo that the structure rises 14 feet above the level of the kiln floor and required using my neighbor Dave's scaffolding to put the upper parts of the stack in place. Cody and I came up with the brick detailing at the top for a little fun at the end of a challenging part of the kiln's building process. We also finished attaching the last elements of the roof in place and made flashing for the space between the roof and the chimney. The damper is enclosed in the stack(where the chimney corbels in to a smaller diameter) and will help control the amount of draft the kiln will draw during a firing.
