Most dishwashers have an element in the bottom to bring water temp up to 140 degrees. If your source is hotter than that, the element won't turn on. :) :lol: 8)

Buy high temp flue mortar and water it down( thin it, I mean) , then spray on your kiln. Works as good as ITC for 10% to 25% of the cost. works great in Raku ( on 2300 degree fiber) kilns and pottery kilns. :wink:

Looks like production line belts moving the still warm ( hot?) glass around the plant. Seems way to regular to be anything else. I've had marks on some BE clear also, but not as nice as yours

After you get paid for your piece, tell the customers where the closest shipping store is located and tell them they got your standard guarantee- the 5 and 50 --- that is 5 minutes and 50 feet from point of sale. :lol: :lol: :lol:

How about two additional supports running across the width to cut the span down to 1/3 of the current width. See if there are 4 ( or 8 ) additional nuts and bolts to attach the two rails with. :P :lol: :)

You can cut thin ( one eighth or less) aluminum with just about any wood cutting blade. Carbide works easiest, plywood next best. Feed through slow and watch for " grab" by the teeth on the blades. Some people used to say ' f reverse the blade', but you don't have to, really. :)

You can get a good estimate of amperage by looking at plug end of cord and comparing same to others with same design at electric supply store . Different plugs carry different amp ratings. :wink:

Laurie- use inserts for door pull screws. They can be inserted the way you mention and glued with most any glue or silicone. Your angle idea will do the trick nicely.. :wink:
