·Takes a long time to get to hold temp... 45mins ish
·Stock punty rest is jank and not even as wide as the opening.
·Recovery time is also weak (of course) when opening the full front.

·Maintains consistent temp way better than my aim (when only using punty door)
·Nice controller
·I like how the full door stays wherever you stop..halfway, ect.
·Cheap for the size

If you fab a new rest, keep me posted. Shopmate has been meaning to build one for awhile.

Do this

Self tapping metal screws

Shelf brackets

Aluminum square bar to compensate height drop from door design

Best shit ever

@ Suzuki

Make sure your program is at full ramp speed if the wait is bothersome?

Its at full ramp... my last and current shopmate both have f420s. They are 110v only and I believe only available through abr. I would not recommend an f420 unless you need/want 110v. Also bugz you gotta get a specific outlet for this kiln. Picked one up at menards for cheap.

Didnt see you already have a paragon, I assume they're all the same.... when the first shopmate uncrated his at my shop, I was surprised it took a different outlet.

Make sure you have somebody there to help you move that pallet, its a lot bigger and heavier that you'd think.
