It will work. The main disadvantage is that there is no thermostatic
control, so you will have to either judge temperature by eye (color)
or else use Tempil or another temperature-indicating device. If you
want to wrap the item in foil, judging by eye is obviously a problem!
That said, I've used mine for heat treating small tools, punches,
chasing tools, like that. I bought the kiln for doing granulation
work on jewelry, which is mostly what I use it for.

Regards,

Bob
