Dick White Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 Cindy, welcome to the zoo here at CeramicArtsDaily. The Dawson Kiln Sitter company went out of business some years ago, but Skutt bought the rights to it all and still makes the parts. You can order them directly from Skutt or from other online sellers of kiln repair parts. There are several configurations of the kiln sitter, so you will need to take yours apart to measure the length of the tube and order one the right size and method of attaching to the face plate of the sitter. It's not hard to do, just that you have to get the right piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hulk Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 Aardvark Clay had the sitter pieces I needed for my 31 year old kiln - not an exact match, but it all bolted up and works! Skutt is great about answering the phone and getting one in touch with the appropriate tech, btw - wanted to mention that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
