- Remove the kiln sections.
- Take the old bottom off the stand.
- Put the new bottom on the stand.
- Relevel the kiln.
- Replace the kiln sections.
- Ensure the stand is in good structural condition and free from corrosion before reassembling the kiln.
NOTE: You may want to experiment with using the old bottom as a secondary back-up bottom if it is not too severely damaged. Some find that having this extra insulation thickness helps firing times and bottom uniformity.
