Hello All: I'm looking for comments on this project please. I obtained an old elect kiln, ripped out the elements, "typical olympic type w/4 bricks tall rings, top and bottom" I want to add a ring of brick between the bottom and the first ring where I will mount a burner that will blow in causing a swirling action of the heat. I am considering using an oil burner from a furnace, along with a small gas burner which should do the initial heating. I'd like to make it a down draft kiln but that is much more complicated than just cutting a hole into the top cover. Do you think that it would make much difference, updraft or down draft? Thanks, Bri snipped-for-privacy@earthlink.net
