dear Wayne: DON'T DO IT! YOU'LL SEND SOMEONE TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM, ..SMOKE
ALARMS WILL GO OFF AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WILL SHOW UP....I HAVE SEEN THIS
HAPPEN. DUMB TO DO! BUT, SMART THAT YOU ASKED FIRST!! BONITA IN SAN

<< how much smoke can I expect to experience? I will have the peep holes of
the kiln closed off and will be firing to cone 015.

I am concerned about the smoke because the kiln is in a recreation center in
a small room with no windows and only a small exhaust fan for ventilation.>>
