LAMPWORKING KILNS

The new BlueBird kiln from Paragon is a dream kiln for the glass bead enthusiast. It safely anneals the glass to prevent breakage during cooling. The 2 ¾” tall, 10” wide double doors give a total of 20” width for inserting bead rods. It is like having two kilns instead of one.

This new Bluebird now features a glass rod warmer at the top of the kiln and phenolic knobs and magnets on the doors.

The digital SC-2 kiln fires silver clay, decals, china paint, enameling, and glass in minutes up to 2000°F. The SC-2 is popular because it fires fast, plugs into a standard 120 volt household outlet and ships by UPS.
We have just redesigned the kiln for improved heat distribution. The new design has two separate heating elements in the left and right sides of the firing chamber. The back of the chamber has no element. Extensive testing shows that the heat distribution in the new SC-2 is more even throughout the firing chamber, because heat does not build up in the back of the kiln. The SC-2 has been in production since 1997. It is a proven design that we 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, 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 fast-firing element is embedded in the firing chamber shell. The SC-2 heats from the sides and back.
SC-2 Features Improved heat distribution.
On/off safety switch.
Built-in base; no extra stand needed.
Door opens 180 degrees The case is slotted for air circulation Electrical components in the base stay cool even at extended hold times The embedded element heats from the two sides and back Top vent complete with tapered plug for lost wax casting Includes a 1/4” thick ceramic fiber shelf Optional SC-2 glass view port.
The reliable Sentry Xpress 3-key controller is packed with features. It includes two modes: Single Speed and 8-segment Ramp-Hold. Features of the Sentry Xpress 3-key Controller on Non-Ceramic Paragon Kilns Design programs with up to 8 segments (steps) in Ramp-Hold mode. Fire to a single temperature at a single speed in the simplified Single Speed mode. Ramp-Hold mode can store 4 programs. Skip a segment in Ramp-Hold during firing without having to stop the kiln to reprogram. Change the target temperature in Ramp-Hold during firing without having to stop the kiln to reprogram. Hold (soak) the temperature in both Single Speed and Ramp-Hold. Experiment with Hold to improve colour saturation of china paints. Add Hold Time during firing without having to stop the kiln to reprogram. Control both heating and cooling in Ramp-Hold. Program Review lets you check the program you are about to fire. Program the Temperature Alarm to sound when the kiln reaches a specific temperature. Use this to remind yourself to check on the kiln. Temperature display throughout firing and cooling in your choice of °F or °C Thermocouple Offset adjusts the thermocouple readout. Set the Delay to turn on the kiln later to suit your schedule. Error Messages report mechanical problems such as a disconnected thermocouple, stuck relay or broken element. 12 Month Warranty LED Lights show whether you are in program, review, or firing mode. Colorful, illustrated instruction manual.
The SC-2 can ship by UPS. Enjoy lower shipping cost and faster service. Specially designed cartons and foam padding assure that the kiln will arrive safely.

Anneal beads and large glass figurines in the digital F-120 lamp working kiln. Raise the spring-loaded vertical-drop door to insert a glass figurine with a punty rod. Lower the door. The punty rod extends outside the firing chamber through the smaller punty rod door. This allows the glass to anneal safely. You can make figurines up to 5” tall in the F-120.
Maintain the annealing temperature indefinitely with the Sentry Xpress 3-key controller. The Sentry Xpress 3-key controller is packed with features. It includes two modes: Single Speed and 8-segment Ramp-Hold. Features of the Sentry Xpress 3-key Controller on Non-Ceramic Paragon Kilns Design programs with up to 8 segments (steps) in Ramp-Hold mode.

Hold (soak) the temperature in both Single Speed and Ramp-Hold. Experiment with Hold to improve color saturation of china paints. Add Hold Time during firing without having to stop the kiln to reprogram. Control both heating and cooling in Ramp-Hold. Program Review lets you check the program you are about to fire. Program the Temperature Alarm to sound when the kiln reaches a specific temperature. Use this to remind yourself to check on the kiln. Temperature display throughout firing and cooling in your choice of °F or °C Thermocouple Offset adjusts the thermocouple readout. Set the Delay to turn on the kiln later to suit your schedule. Error Messages report mechanical problems such as a disconnected thermocouple, stuck relay or broken element. 12 Month Warranty LED Lights show whether you are in program, review, or firing mode. Colourful, illustrated instruction manual. Download it from the “Additional Information” section below to review these features in more detail. Ease of operation will delight you. Never before has lamp work been so easy in this price range. Imagine the massive, award-winning figurines you will be able to make with this kiln. The F-series lid elements use a new element groove that eliminates element pins. The element coils are wider than the groove opening, so the elements stay in place without pins. The element is mounted in the top of the kiln for safety. There is no sidewall element to touch with a punty rod. With the element in the top, you can also fuse and slump glass. Imagine the glass you could sag, slump, and fuse with this kiln. Make small bowls, pendants, earrings, cufflinks, and even bracelets. Enjoy the glittering beauty of dichroics. This kiln will give you a haven of creative enjoyment that you will enjoy for many years. Digital Sentry Xpress with 8 Segment Ramp-Hold, Skip Segment & Program Review On/off switch Safety pilot light The element groove in the roof eliminates pins. 2 ½” insulating refractory firebricks in the roof, walls, and bottom The element is seated in the top of the kiln.
