In Topic: Gas kiln
Posted 19 Jan 2013
Moving day was a success! An ordeal as anticipated though. With the internal skeleton I built everything stayed in place during the move. Although a forklift would have been nice, we ended up using tractors as that was what we had on-hand and the kiln already had big bolts welded on each corner for that express purpose. I put it in the shop for some minor hardware and brick repairs while I work on getting the slab pored.
The guy I bought it from said he would, at times have difficulty with the kiln shutting down on it's own. As a result of this I am going to replace the thermocouple and pilot light. QUESTION: I know there are different types of thermocouples out there, but none of the thermocouples at the local hardware store differentiate between the types... Any suggestions on what has worked for you in the past?
More to come as it develops.
My better half with the kiln.

1500 for the kiln, furniture, 500 gal tank (20%) full and the move. Thanks for the tips! Moving day is on Friday! I will start constructing the braces now and be sure to take lots of photos along the way.
