Lightbulb Kiln Building 101

I'm looking to build a homemade kiln for anealing my Boro. Please oh great ones, school me! Lol After I get more information I'm going to turn this thread in to how to build your own home kiln for cheap. I've read the mailbox guide and I'm hoping to do something bigger. It's going to be analog to save on costs atm.

What I need help with is more information on wiring and running coils and power usage. Layout and cantilever setup I may need some guidance on.
Any links to parts for my kiln would be amazing. I've rebuilt a digi controller in the past but this is a first from scratch build.



Thank you in advance and ty guys for the site, this is a great community on here and I can't wait to help contribute what I can to pthers like myself!
