Hank
You asked me how my kiln is designed in regards
to getting a even firing. The burners are at the
back and front of kiln going in at the sides (not bottom)
and the flue is at the back, with a flue box were the
dampers are located, then of course the chimney (outside)
This may not be that good of a description for you.

Finished my firing and the back is still colder than the
front. It seems logical that it would be colder there, since
that is were the flue is located -- But is there anything
I can do to even the firing out?

Snowing like crazy in Medicine Hat, Alberta.
