      I have put together 2 waste oil suction nozzles with electrodes to fire this kiln but after several attempts it keeps stalling  at around 1100 degrees F.  I don't think it is an insulation problem as I built it the same way as at first which fired to cone 10 with a different burner setup.  My best guess is the burners are not efficient enough to make the power needed.  I shut it off at 3:00 AM and will look at it for other problems, ie some collapse inside etc.

      I will probably invest in some gas burners and go with propane.
