I saw Jason's kiln while I was at the Tech Center in Tennessee. Very
interesting, because he had laid the kiln (circular electric) on its
side, and was supporting it with hexagonal framework of steel on the
outside, a framework that could be tighted against the frame to support
it when it was firing, and hot, and apparently likely to sag if not well
braced. While I was there, Jason was waiting for a part, so hadn't put
the kiln into use so far.
