Here was go as promised in my a phone call a few wimutes back. My pie was lovely then I was straight onto the photos using one of the MAXInes that Wagga was finishing off.

In default you MAXI is like so.


To fit your racks or to change one do as so.
#

The forth rack is for larger mandrels that won't fit in the standard holes. You can rest the larger mandrels on the top of this half rack. This is the rack on the left.
.

The insulation boards can be sat in the recessed kiln floor so that the floor becomes level with the opening. This is a help if you are flameworking large peices or using large beads that you just want to sit in the kiln.



This shot shows how beads can be loaded into the MAXI


Hope that all helps, call me if not.
