Greetings Knif' Dogs,
I'm looking for input on this kiln and inquired directly from Evenheat and they said it's perfectly suitable to do heat treating. (up to 2200° f)
http://www.kilnfrog.com/osb/itemdetails.cfm/ID/794
The chamber dimensions are 10" wide x 9" deep (6.5" tall).
I would rarely make a blade over 9 or 10" long... but if I 'needed' to, I could place the blade diagonally [The diagonal of this kiln about 13.5"].
A friend pointed out that I wouldn't want to place a blade too close to the heating element. Does anyone have any input on the maximum size blade I could treat in this thing?
...also if you have anything else to add (Good or Bad) please do! I'm on a budget here and this is substantially cheaper than the next step up.
Thanks very much everyone,
Andy G.
