 ==Status==
-Not to be touched or used until asbestos status has been determined. Jonty is checking this out.
+The kiln has been used several times now. The door is a bit broken, it will still insulate enough to get hot, but it is hard to open and close. I attempted to cement it back together with fire cement, but the bricks really need to be taken off and replaced with new ones. Getting them off seems difficult! - Luke
-Update: Not sure if Jonty has given his ok or not. At any rate, the kiln has been used several times now. The door is a bit broken, it will still insulate enough to get hot, but it is hard to open and close.

 ==Log==
+The kiln is working, though the thermostat is not functional, so when
+you're using it, you have to switch it on and off, as you are the
+thermostat. Abby has had a new thermostat delivered, but he hasn't had
+time to fit it yet.  If you'd like to help when he does, then we'll
+give a shout on the mailing list when it's happeneing.
