Studio stuff for sale

This is from Ragnar:
The k23 brick is a great opportunity for someone building a kiln with insulating brick walls.  Even the ones with holes drilled through them can be used with sand filling the holes.  They worked great for me for more than 20 years after I gave up the McKinnel kiln with its steel rods through bricks for a roof.
