Jeff,
Fiberfrax is a refractory material that works like high-temp insulation. You
can get it in all sorts of forms, from wooly stuff to boards. As for the heat
cycle, like I said, it probably wouldn't be a great solution for a production
shop that needs to really pump the work out. (Ok, bad pun, but as I only saw
it as it was going up on the screen I'll leave it be <G>.)
