				Element placement and firing results

				I just purchased a Caldera to have a travel kiln.  Realizing it probably takes a few experimental runs, will there be much difference in firing from a Fusion 16 with a top/lid element, vs the side elements in this small kiln?  I plan to fuse 6x6 tiles.

Thank you for your business. If you fire with full rates, you will notice that the Caldera fires much faster than the Fusion-16.
