Take it from me... Its a good way to blow the door out... Water turns
into steam and builds up pressure at the top of a kiln door... and there
you have just how a kiln door falls down... now the real trick here is
to convince the kiln fairies to pick up the red hot bricks and rebuild
the door... its a great way to cool the kiln down in a few hours, but
its rather hard on the kiln shelves and brick, let alone the potter...
