Cheers!

Dumb kiln question

This might be a really stupid newbie kiln question, but how hot do kilns get on the outside? Is there a concern about what surface they should sit on or how much room to leave around them?
Thanks!...

Hi everyone,
I have just ordered a selection of filigrana colours, but I have no idea what to do with it! (dumb, i know...).
