Thanks Wendy & Janelle :)

Fininally decided it was time to replace the elements on my old $100 kiln. It was taking longer and longer to fire. Armed with just a YouTube video, a basic understanding of electricity (ie don't touch a 9 volt battery to your tongue), and a pair of needle-nosed pliers I dove in.

The old and new elements. The old elements were very brittle and came out in lots of pieces

Placing the new element

Connecting wires

Seems to work. Need to do a test firing soon.
