I have only just thought of this - when I have finished my beads and skip the kiln to the next cycle do I still need to worry about ventilation or have the bad fumes already burnt off by this stage?
I normally just switch everything off and leave the kiln going, I'm in a bedsit so there's no escape!
:-\
Thanks,

i dont think so ...i know a few types of kiln can be a bit smelly first couple of firings but i always turn off my vent when leaving the kiln to do its thing .....but its out in the shed .... but i guess if in doubt leave it on ....hope its not to noisy though ;)
