DianaB Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 This kiln is being offered in “fair” condition for $60. This seems like a great deal even if it’s totally shot (can maybe use it as a raku kiln). Can anyone help me identify the manufacturer for potential parts?

Hulk Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 Wow, those bricks look good, the (visible portion) lid looks good as well. Have there been brick replacements (different colours)? That would be a good sign. And a pyrometer setup, wow II. Is there furniture as well? Maybe an EvenHeat? Those metal swinging peep doors could be a clue. If so, the detail plate (on right side of red box, maybe) would indicate. Search images, e.g. "Evenheat kiln for sale used" - note the peep covers. Post an update please!

DianaB Posted May 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 I will check out the Evenheat for comparison. Meanwhile I’ve grabbed this one sight unseen, considering its apparent condition. I had to crop the pic so it would fit here but the whole lid looked good too. Will keep you posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted May 13, 2021 Report Share Posted May 13, 2021 It's an Evenheat/Gare. Evenheat still has parts for these. Looks to be in excellent condition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great kiln for use with a wall mounted digital controller or an Olympic ElectroSitter, since the on/off switches don't give you a lot of control.

Yes that’s what I’m ultimately hoping to do. Handy to be married to an electrical engineer when it comes to these types of projects - right up his alley! Will read up on the options.
