The digital SC-2 kiln fires silver art clay, decals or transfers, china paint, enameling, and glass in minutes up to 1050°C The SC-2 is popular with seminar teachers and hobbyists because it fires fast, plugs into a standard 240 volt household socket, (and is easy for teachers to sell.)
The basic SC-2 has been in production since 1997. It is a proven design that Paragon Kilns have steadily refined every year. Thousands of artists in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Japan love their SC-2. The SC-2, for a digital kiln, just 3 buttons giving you amazing control over a wide range of firing times and temperatures. yet is surprisingly affordable. It fires automatically at the rate and temperature you enter. A large, brightly lit display prompts for firing rate, temperature and hold time. Use the hold feature to automatically soak any type of clay silver to its recommended time.
The high-tech ceramic fibre firing chamber is wrapped in a steel inner case. The outer steel case remains cool due to the layer of air between it and the inner case. In addition, the case is slotted for air circulation. Electrical components, located in the base, stay cool even at extended hold times.
The fast-firing element is embedded in the firing chamber shell. The SC-2 heats from the sides and back. Each SC-2 includes a 1/4” thick ceramic fiber shelf.
Why is a ceramics company selling a glass/ silver kiln?
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!)
