Han Posted September 2, 2020 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 I purchased an inexpensive kiln, second hand and very old. It’s made by Dryads of Leicester, I’ve searched and searched for info on them or a manual and I just can’t find a thing. Must be because it’s discontinued. the kiln operates with a dial, and it seems to go two ways with heating circuit off at 6oclock and full at 11oclock and 1 Oclock. Has anyone come across such a kiln? What does the dial means for bisque and glaze fires. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chilly Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 Odd. Dryad is a manufacturer of all kinds of craft items, based in Leicester, England. I had a Dryad floor loom. I don't think they exist any more. Also, don't think that ad was correct. I don't think Essex kilns make kilns, only sell and service. @Han can you post some photos, then you might get some more advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
