We're did yo get the adjustable punty rest

[@grand_master_glass]

It was available as an add-on / upgrade when I got the kiln!

[@truints]

How did you like the kiln mat? I'm thinking of buying one in case of glass breaking and to keep bead release off the main part of the kiln.

[@grand_master_glass]

100% great purchase!

[@truints]

@@grand_master_glass Got one on the way now, Thanks!

[@WayfaringStar]

Do you have recommendations for kilns that will work well at different price ranges?

[@grand_master_glass]

The AIM kilns are going to be the most cost effective! The Paragon are going to be the standard and Skutt is the top tier!

[@WayfaringStar]

@@grand_master_glass thank you very much! I’m looking to anneal glass beads and small glasswork statues

[@hotfiyah]

@@WayfaringStar If you can afford it get an aim or a skutt. Paragon and all the rest of them are kind of lower tier quality. Not saying they don't work, but those two brands will generally last you a long time with minimal replacement.

[@howlsfire69]

Where did you order this from? I wanna try to get the same one but not sure who to purchase it from. I see the manufacturer but you have to call them to order one.

[@grand_master_glass]

I got the kiln online and availability is difficult. Trying looking around online. Best of luck on your purchase!

[@evilbetty99]

I just did the digi conversion. How do i raise my set value past 1000? It only goes to 1000°...

[@grand_master_glass]

Mmmm hard to say, I’m not an expert and it can get tricky with all the settings.
