i would add to the above: if your basement is unfinished, great. put your kiln under the window. use an orton kiln vent. keep all wood etc away from your kiln so if it does go weird nothing to burn. you want lots of lighting. i would love to have lots of 3 or 4 foot square tables on wheels. storage ...

hi bert, i think that is silicon in windex that is the culprit. windex will cause horrible fisheyes in paint/varnish. i use ammonia in distilled water followed by a 'rinse' with distilled water in another spray bottle. i saw something like your glass wax at ace hardware. i will go look and report ba...
