Hobby Ceramicraft
are the original Paragon kiln stockists in the U.K. having sold large numbers
of ceramic kilns here over the years. We also host the Paragon kiln
service and maintainance seminars in the U.K. of a fairly regular basis.
We ship our kilns
in quantity, not by small expensive air freight consignments as many others
do, but by sea in 20 and 40 foot shipping containers. This means we can
add a few small glass or silver clay kilns into the container at a very
much lower freight cost per kiln. When you come to
comparing our price at the bottom with those quoted by other smaller
companies you will notice the very considerable difference. (Note also; we always include a furniture
kit in our price. We think it silly to make it an extra; you would not
buy a cooker then pay extra for some shelves would you!)
Features
Paragon Fusion-8 Glass Fusing Kiln
Paragon’s new Fusion-series digital hot glass kilns
are packed with exciting features. They come in 6, 7, 8 and 10-sided
versions. The Fusion-8 is the 8-sided middle of the range version is by
far the most popular selling glass kiln in the U.K.
The kiln has basically the same construction and parts as the Ceramic
Kilns Hobby Ceramicraft has sold in the U.K. for well over a decade, so
spares and knowledge of maintainance and usage no problem to us.
The digital Sentry Xpress 3 key controller
comes standard on all Fusion-series kilns. Control both heating
and cooling with simple 3-key operation.
These controllers give you just that; fine control over exactly the
speed and level of firing and cooling that you require. Even the beginner
can now achieve firing results that in the past took great experience and
infinite patience to obtain.
The Fusion-8 is 11” deep and includes a heating element in the sidewalls.
Enjoy enhanced heat control with fusing, slumping, and embossing. The
Fusion-8 fires on 230 volts.
