Hi Katherine,
Don't prop kiln door open really, just want it to stay up temporarily when adding a newly made bead at torch.
Helpful to not have to use both hands at same time (one holding mandel w hot bead on it & other hand trying to keep kiln door up to place bead where u want it.... For me, I use a rack inside kiln.
Probably more of an issue for lamp workers who work closer to kiln and reach over to place bead in....while still close proximity to flame?
