is now on the clayart page.

this is theory.
you can run with it many ways.
those that want an exact recipe...call an engineer.

i used scrap pipe, some simple welding/
have a bracket on the wall holding the pipe in place.

i have no idea what your roof, ceiling are like.
many thousands of variations.
that is for you to monkey with. if your kiln is in the basement
of a 10 story building...well good luck.

Mel,
I take it this is a natural draft by joining the cool floor temp air.
Looks interesting' I was just at the local museum where they want to
take a cinderblock storage shed and make a pottery out of it. This
venting system seems very reasonable.
