Gina,
We have a rather small backyard compared to our neighbors nor do
I like the looks of the tank so we had our buried in a flower bed.
We had to buy it rather than rent as most home owners do here.
I can't help you with the permit issue but I think getting permits are
increasingly difficult just about everywhere.

Hi, I have been stressed out this week because of the gas kiln. I decided
to have it put in storage till I get a 100% ok from the propane gas company
and a plumber. I poured a 10by14 slab and found a place to get the metal
shed but never really thought about the gas. I raku fire regularly and
thought it will not be a problem. I need two 100 gallon propane tanks to
fire the twelve cubic alpine updraft kiln. I know my husband will choke me
if the lawn is ruined because this beast weighs 4000 pounds plus the
forklift! Also,permits in new york are like getting a colonoscopy if you
know what i mean. I stay awake at night thinking about it.Maybe someday I
will move to a place with more open space, maybe Texas next to David
Hendley.Thanks for listening, Gina Mars,Mars Pottery Long Island New York.
P.S Hi Marci Sherman will see you soon, too stressed right now.
