Hi All,
Here's a question that's been lurking, and my pea brain
hasn't figured it out: We've been talking about flue size being
an important aspect of gas kiln design. But when you adjust your
damper, you are impeding the flow out of the kiln. Aren' t you
changing the flue size by adjusting the damper?

Jennifer, who's brain capacity might be impeded by trying to
close out the 2000 books.....
