As with most campfires, a teepee fire starts with a foundation of tinder. Gather up your tinder materials and place them in a bundle in the center of the fire location. To make it easier to bundle the tinder, you may want to lay it on top of a piece of dry tree bark. Once your tinder material is in place in the center, gather your kindling and use approximately five or six pieces to create a cone-like teepee shape around the tinder. Next, add a layer of firewood to create a larger teepee around the first.  Stick the smaller twigs and branches into the ground to help secure the teepee. Start with smaller pieces of kindling and move on to larger pieces for a second layer as you build the structure. Make sure to leave an opening in the teepee so you can light the fire when you’re ready. Place the opening on the side of the teepee where the wind is blowing, so the fire will get the air needed to maintain it. Leave spaces between the pieces of wood as you place them to help air circulate through the fire as well. Keep a reserve pile of kindling and firewood on hand after building the teepee. You may need it later to feed the fire. With the teepee structure in place, it’s time to light the fire. Place a match or lighter under the tinder to ignite it. The teepee structure helps encourage the flames to move upward, so the kindling should catch fire first, followed by the firewood. If the flames don’t move from the tinder to the kindling and firewood, you may need to relight the tinder to get the fire started. As the fire burns, the teepee structure will eventually collapse, and help feed the fire for some time. However, the flames may start to die down after a while. At that point, throw some kindling and firewood from your reserve pile onto the fire to maintain it. A teepee fire is ideal for cooking because it burns steadily for a shorter period of time.

Raise the temperature of the kiln to 850°F (455°C) for 12 hours. This will produce "bisque" or "unglazed pottery." This initial firing removes the physical and chemical water so that the piece can be glazed without returning to mud and breaking. Ranges of temperature are referred to as "cones" in the ceramics world. Allow the temperature to drop and remove the pottery 48 hours later after the temperature has completely cooled. Keep in mind that glaze will run.  Cover the bottom of your pottery with wax to shield it from sticking to the kiln shelf itself. If you want more precise lines, paint with "bisque stain" and then cover with a clear glaze.  If your surface isn't smooth, use a 100 grit sandpaper or a kitchen paring knife edge to make it so.  Then sponge the entire surface of the pot to remove any dust left from sanding to provide a clean surface for the glaze to adhere to. Glazing takes on a number of forms. You can dip, brush, sponge, or etch -- just to get the list started. Use wax to keep the bottom from getting glaze on it during firing. You can also buy glazes in liquid or dry form. If you want to be a real pro, eventually you can make your own. Depending on your clay, the size of the object, and the glaze, you may need a kiln that hits 2500° Fahrenheit (1148° C). Overnight, warm up your kiln at very low heat. Spend two hours at low heat (an increase in temperature of no more than 200°F per hour) and then two hours at medium heat (an increase in temperature of no more than 300°F per hour). Finally, finish at high heat (an increase in temperature of 300 to 400°F per hour) until the required temperature has been reached. It may have rested on the bottom of the kiln in an awkward position, forcing it to lose its flat bottom. Smooth it so that it sits without wobbling on a surface such as a table or shelf. Add felt onto the bottom of your object if you so desire. Then, admire your finished product!
