Thanks to Rob, Susan, Barry, Wayne and Dave for the responses when I pleaded
a couple of days ago for help getting my Olympic D17 up and running.
Dismantling and re-assembling various things, a little can of compressed
air, a wire for cleaning out teeny tiny holes in the ignition bar, a couple
of spare thermocouples, a couple of calls to Bob Haugen at Olympic and your
good help all came together to result in the kiln firing up this afternoon
exactly as advertised. Now it's time to get some pots into it.
Thanks to everyone. I owe you.
