I recently purchased a used JJ Cress kiln that appears to be in great condition- just needing to get a stand and set up electric to run. I reached out to Cress to find out approximate age as well a get a potential user manual and learned that Cress was not JJ Cress. I cannot find much about JJ Cress online- is Cress just an offshoot of an older company (JJ Cress). Cress has the same model (B-23-H) which looks identical in layout to the kiln I purchased. Any background on these companies? Also curious if replacement parts from Cress wills be compatible.
