Chris,
I got bad news for you. You are going to need a bigger gas line and more
burners to get that thing hot. Maybe if you could harness one of those
Colorado forest fires that might work. Or perhaps the Kiluea Volcano in
Hawaii. See http://www.lavajunkie.com./ The rest of you Clayartors, if
you like to look at molten things, this could be for you.
You also might consider bricking in the front and back. Order up a train
load of hard brick.
good luck,
Paul Herman

I am having a bear of a time attempting to calculate BTU's for the kiln/arch
at the following link.

The Chimney is a wee short, but I think with some natural gas and forced air
I might be able to get the puppy to temperature:)

How'd they do this anyway? The close ups of the arch are amazing.
