There are "fire marks" left by the firewood directly on the green body, and the ashes that naturally fall after the firewood is burnt, which makes the work warm and colorful, and is a state that can not be reached by electric kilns and gas kilns. Compared with general electric kilns and gas kilns, the process of burning wood from the row (stack) kiln, ignition and combustion to sealing kiln, and then cooling down, these processes take about 8-10 days. In addition, the high pressure of the wood-burning kiln, as well as factors such as the humidity of the climate, the dryness of the wood, the artificial speed of the firewood, the location of the kiln discharge, etc., may lead to the success or failure of the work, and the damage rate is also high. Experienced wood-burning writers will consider the speed of the airflow of the whole kiln when discharging the kiln. From the different sizes of the works, how to discharge the fire path, how to estimate the fire path, how to invest the wood and carbon, and the degree of fire mind. Every process must be focused so that the perfect wood-burning works can be presented. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/48889089358_5abbecc11a_b.jpg **Precautions** 1.
