for a kiln like this, you would mount a thermocouple next to where the blade will sit and connect it to a display/controller(pid). you tell the controller the temperature you want and your hi/lo limits, lets say 1485*F +/- 15*F. the controller then sends a signal to a solid state relay that turns the power to the coils on or off.
if you wanted, you could hook the thermocouple up to an analog display and just switch the kiln on or off to keep temperature where you want it.
old analog stuff is amazing. imagine a system that could place a 2500 pound artillery shell +/- 25 yards on a moving target from a distance of 20 miles
