Watch Colorado Post Art Project - Kiln Time by Colorado Springs wood and metal artist Mitchell Dillman http://MitchellDillman.com for a close look at the commercial evaporative wood kiln located at http://ColoradoSpringsSawmill.com Mitchell works with locally harvested Colorado Wildfire Wood and welded steel components to make many types of modern-rustic furniture, fixtures and decor.
