kiln box
This is the box that I built to house my kiln. It is about 30” wide, 24” tall and 15” deep. It should be large enough to handle my needs.
-
kiln circulation fan
This is the Fan that will circulate the air.
-
kiln heat source
This is the heat source for my kiln. It was fabricated from a 3 1/2" Stovepipe Tee. I made a wooden bushing to hold it against the hole in the box and placed a 100w Lightbulb in the top. The bottom is open to allow air to enter the Kiln so that it can be drawn out by the circulation fan on the other side of the box
