If you are in or near the Asheville, NC, area and would like to explore the wonderful world of metal clay, stain glass, or enameling, this is your chance! I have to dismantle my studio and sell this great kiln, which has been used just a few times and is perfectly clean and working like a charm. I love it, but have to let it go…
Most metal clay artists start with this kiln, as it is so easy to program and you just plug it into your outlet. I am adding a few metal clay tools for you to get started, including tongs, carving tools, and a few texture stamps and cutters. You get a great deal for an almost new kiln!View my listing on Craigstlist at: http://asheville.craigslist.org/art/2480539152.html.
UPDATE: I am leaving this post here, but I am happy to say that the kiln has found a new home! Someone else is going to have much fun with it now. Yay!
The Paragon SC2 Programmable kiln is perfect for both wax burnout and metal clay use. This popular oven can also be used for enameling, stain glass and ceramic glazing. The efficient ceramic fiber chamber is contained in a steel inner case, allowing for the circulation of air between the inner case and the vented steel outer case. This keeps the outer case cool during use, protecting the electrical components beneath the chamber and most importantly, keeps energy costs down.
Chamber dimensions are 8″ wide by 7-3/4″ deep by 5-3/4″ high. The SC-2 fires automatically at the rate and temperature you enter. A large, easy to see display prompts for firing rate, temperature and hold time. The controller is easy to use, and you can create and store up to 4 programs on it. Detailed instructions are included for the kiln and the controller.
