The versatile and compact 11/4.5 glass kiln features a 2" flip door and is perfect for artists looking to explore a wide range of contemporary warm glass techniques, including fusing, slumping, casting, bead annealing, pattern bars, boiled glass, lampworking, and metal clay work. It includes a Furniture Kit with a shelf, posts, and kiln wash.
Despite its small footprint, the 11/4.5 offers ample space for small-scale fired art, accommodating up to a 10" round or 7" square kiln shelf. It can function as a tabletop kiln on an all-metal table or be placed on a sturdy workbench with layers of drywall board, garden pavers, and kiln base bricks to create airspace underneath. The kiln also includes large handles for easy maneuverability. An optional extra shelf is available for simultaneous project creation, and a take-apart option is offered (please specify when ordering).
The self-supported flip door is padded with fiber blanket and gently rests on mandrels and punties, enabling convenient side-loading. Additionally, inserting the included brick plug into the flip door opening transforms the kiln into an all-brick configuration, facilitating seamless transitions to fusing and slumping processes.
