Default More N00b Questions

Ok so today was my first day on the torch! Yay! wow it's a little harder than it looks for sure. So a couple questions:

Is the puffy matierial inside the kiln and inside the kiln door supposed to be removed? I put the three larger bricks under the kiln but what are the three tiny bricks for? I'm assuming you put them under te kiln shelf but i want to make sure.

Next question: I've got shade 3 didymiums for Divardi and also shade 5 clip ons. I'm going to be doing smallish boro work mostly. I have bad eyes and ususally use reading glasses. Can you get rx Didymium lenses or something similar or should I just use the clip-ons?

I turn on the propane tank, then the oxygen, then light the propane on the torch, reduce to a small flame. then turn on the oxygen, but its still making a popping sound...

I'm sure I'll think of more noob questions soon lol.
