The lid sat tighter with lesson tension bar. I moved it to the second hole for more tension and the gap was larger. Thess are the picture with more tension.

I am so sorry to post my question in your post, @Pres!

It seems like my spring rod is sitting on the bottom of oval. What’s odd is, my lid is not sitting straight on top. Is it normal?

Thank you so much @neilestrick ! My latch won’t close and isn’t aligned...

Congratulations on your new kiln! I also just got my L&L 28S easy fire. Did the test firing. I noticed after the test fire, my lid gap become so big. I reattached my lid after adjusting the metal plate and tension bar. even with all the adjustment, I cannot get the lid to sit right. It’s off balanced and won’t close. Did you have any issue with your lid?
