This is a kiln built in 2002 from plans that I got from Pete Kekel. It is an old upright freezer (28"L,28"W,58"H). The compressor and all lines were removed to provide max space inside the kiln.
Pic 2 is the therometer/hydrometer that provides temperature and humidity readings from a remote unit mounted inside the kiln.
Pic 3 shows the inside of the kiln and has two 60 watt bulbs mounted in waterproof fixtures. They are attached to a prewired, waterproof, portable thermostat that turns them on and off to control to temperature inside.
There is also a continuous run computer fan that runs while the kiln is in operation to circulate the air. Installed in the back is a vent but I have never had to open it.
The drying cycle is between 21 and 30 days.
