    Have you ever gotten up at 6:30 in the morning and turned the Kiln
    on and leave for a while to workout and come back only to realize
    you turned the knob to the high setting instead of the low????? As I
    scratch my head and kicked myself I had also forgot to put the
    thermostat in the back of the oven. You see this is the first time I
    have needed to cast since having a new shop.Once I inserted the
    needle like projection  the tempature read 1500 degrees wow! 

    Well Ive lost that casting. Then I thought why not bring the temp
    down and cast. OK. Then I realized I had,nt set up the Torch. Well I
    moved all that and cast and the casting came out wonderful .With
    shock miracles do happen. 

    Well I just cast a ring in a small flask in less than 2 hours. What
    a day!
