Yeah sure<GGGGGG>

You know, I was thinking about you late last night during the heavier reduction process. I thought how wonderful it would be to get up your way and help you construct a small kiln. I really have an itch to build another kiln. With all supplies on hand, I believe we could build a smllish(maybe 9 cu ft.) over a weekend, no problem.
One of my projects for this summer is to construct a raku kiln here at the house. Have the barrel, just need to do some cutting welding nd putting the insulating fabric liner in it. A required burner of aabout 30K BTUs is only $40, can run off of propane or gass, depending on the diaphram(sp) used.

Anyhow, I crashed early last night, and while I thought I ws going to sleep like a rock, I woke about 3 AM, and couldn't get back to soild sleep the rest of the morning, been up since bout 5:30AM. Might head up to the studio to see how things are cooling.

I'm not even going to think about opening the kiln until tomorrow some time. Though I admit its sort of like being a kid on christmsd day but haaving to wait another day to unwrap them.
