Plans for a small Kiln

[dick.shryock]

Well I read all of the replies to my initial inquiry and decided to make a small kiln using plywood, a lightbulb and fan. You can check it out by visiting my website at http://dickshryock.com and clicking on "My Woodworking Studio" I have several photos of the kiln in process of construction. Since the photos were taken I lined the box with pegboard to protect the rigid insulation that I applied to the inside walls of the kiln. The peg board will allow me to make moveable sticker to use inside of the kiln. Be sure to sign my guestbook when you visit and let me know what you think.

If you want the cheapest version, just a 15 watt bulb under some wire racks will do the job. If you want to get fancy, then you can build a box around the racks. Works like a chimney. Let them dry really slowly at first, like on the floor for a bit (depending on weather you turn them to final thickness and let them warp, or if you turn them thick and then return them), then up on the wire racks, and then to finish, up the wattage in the light bulb, or add another light bulb.
