This kiln is absolutely spanking!
I can now programme it with ease an so far it has been an absolute pleasure to use!
Martin very kindly sent me a kiln rack yesterday which I road tested last night, I have attached a few photos for you to have a look! The bead door is wonderful - plenty big enough to fit in any kind of bead and wide enough to do so without struggling - you can see that I only made a few big hole beads last night (the final picture is the kiln when I looked in it this morning).
I love it and I can't recommend it highly enough!

Glad to see you're enjoying the new kiln! ;D
I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed it. I hate not having a kiln. What length are your mandrels, are they 9 inch? I need some new ones as I've bent loads of my 1.6mm ones and was wondering if to get the 9 inch instead of 12 inch so they're short enough to fit in the kiln with the door shut for when I do get one.

Not certain, but think they're nine inch.
to be honest though, the bead door closes with loads of room to spare, so I could probably get bigger mandrels in and still close the door.
Ok thanks.
