Hello,
I just bought a front loading kiln(Paragon E9A) that is big enough for several blades. So, I put in 3 blades, heat to temperature(1500F), soak for recommended time, open door, remove blade 1, close door with left hand while putting knife in quench with right. Thermocouple says temp is down to 1400F, heat back to 1500F. How long do I wait before removing next blade? Is my soak clock at zero or should I just give it a minute or two once kiln is back to temperature? Would O1 be different from 1084 or 52100?
thanks for the help
