Charcoal kiln

[lux]

Anyone in the south east looking to move on a small , say 6.ft ish , size charcoal kiln ? Or have you made any decent home made ones? Oil drums maybe ?

 

I will be removing a load of ash die back and windblown timbers in my woods soon. Thought out of interest I might try and make some charcoal. Not commercial just curiosity and hopefully end up with a good supply for summer bbq

 

The one in the picture is for sale on eBay atm but too far to be worth going for.

Looks a sound kiln n easy size to deal with, load it up in the  morning n set it going, come back with yr next load n seal it up. K
