Default Kiln suggestion / recommendation ?

Presently looking to purchase a Kiln so that I may do the following:

- Precious metal / Jewelery / PMC clay, etc...

- Enameling on Copper / Silver / Gold etc...

- Glass slumping and fusing (largest piece would be about the size of
a breakfast bowl)

I would prefer a kiln with a 'side opening / swinging door and with a
window or peep-hole if possible. For convenience sake I would prefer
it to be 110 volt. If that's not possible, 220v can be made
available.

Most of the kiln's use would be for slumping and enameling

Money is not an issue, but I don't think I could justify spending any
amount over 5k.

Any suggestions or recommendations would be helpful......

Cheers,

* I wouldn't suggest this to anyone else, but for you...
I believe your best bet would be to contact your fellow
Canadian who apparently has a wide variety of kilns in
stock. *That would be most fitting.


From what I can see, there's a number of Canadians here ?
Would you be reffering to the guy from BC ? Perhaps I should ask him
for help
instead of you. That's kind of what you're saying, right ?

Exactly. *A strawman for a strawman.


Good Christ,

No wonder this NG is so slow.......

Wicked,....Thanks !

I remember being at your website once before...
I Found the information at the site really informative and it made
looking for a Kiln a crapload easier.

Having said that, I think I'm going to go with either the model

#1316 - 13" x 13" x 16" tall (inside), 240 volt / 15 amp

or the...

Model #9169 2000F 16" wide x 9" x 9" tall 120V/19A

Can you PM me so I can get an ETA and final price with shipping, or do
I do that through the website ?
(I'll probably just get it drop shipped to my location....)

Cheers,

/FC

Ah - don't you just love a story with a happy ending g.

Now - hands up all of those who actually believed this little charade.

I must be getting old & cynical - but this particular game
(also known as 'Hey - why don't I just put a post up on usenet asking
for suppliers of those widgets that we sell and then you can post a
plug for our business saying that we've got loads of them at excellent
prices, then I can compliment you on your (our!) website and then
everybody can see what a great company we are and we'll sell shedloads
of widgets - and nobody on usenet will realise that they've been
duped)....

Once again - shows that whoever wrote 'No publicity is bad publicity'
hadn't reckoned with Dennis' particular talents... - the Oscars were
_last_ night....

...or I could just be old & cynical.....

Do you suppose that D-anus' mother swore off anal sex after he was born?

This board isn't significant enough and doesn't have enough viewers to
bother posting ads. If I want to advertise, I do it direct, do it
where there are more then 2 or 3 viewers, and post something like
this:

For the best possible prices on Oxygen Generators (can be shipped
anywhere on earth) we're running a promotion special ending April 4,
2008
http://www.vicartglass.com/products/...%20Special.htm

I wonder if you fellas haven't figured out yet why this board has
become so infrequently visited it's degenerated into irrelevancy?
