Hello,

Finally materials arrived and I can start making my own knife kiln :D

Materials for chamber and insulation:

Morgan Thermal Ceramics JM23 250x124x64
Morgan Thermal Ceramics Superwool Plus 1100 50mm

Stuff on photo is for only ONE kiln :)

In couple of days I will get in my hands Lumel RE72 PID with programmer for PC control.
And heating modules.
