Paragon Fusion and ClamShell SQUARE Glass Kilns

	All have elements are in lid for even heat distribution across the glass surface.
	1700 degrees.
	Includes electronic controller which is is recommended for firing glass. Digital Sentry Xpress controller fires up to 8 segments in 4 programs. Each segment includes rate and hold settings. Control both heating and cooling with simple 3 key operation. (Upgrade to Sentry 12 key controller for $180)
	14" fires up to 9 4"x4" glass tiles. 16" is 20% larger.
	Fusion models are top opening.
	CS14S and CS16S: The walls and top, as a single unit, lift up and out of the way so you can assemble glass pieces inside the kiln. Add stringers and frit to delicate designs, often without using glue. When the kiln shelf is loaded and you are ready to fire, lower the kiln in place. The kiln is easy to open because of two counter-weight springs mounted under the kiln. The kiln base extends 4” in the back to support the weight of the kiln when in the open position. The base comes with mar-proof rubber feet.
	CS14D and CS16D are dual-opening: You can open the kiln by lifting the kiln body or by lifting only the lid. Lift the kiln body out of the way to assemble glass directly on the shelf; open the lid to load glass over a slumping mold. The clamshell kiln can be opened by lifting the kiln body or the kiln lid, but never both at the same time. The kiln is equipped with safety latches on the side. The gravity-operated top latch holds the lid closed; the lever-operated bottom latch holds the kiln body closed. (The only drawback to the D model is you cannot add a bead door, window or upgrade to the 12 key controller, due to limited space.)
	All Paragon glass kilns have been improved with the introduction of the ball groove for the elements in the lid. This eliminated the need for pins in the lids.

Paragon Ovation-10 Glass Kiln new!

If you've been firing a smaller kiln, you will be amazed at the space inside the Ovation-10. Fire several large projects such as bowls or platters in one load. The Ovation is 5.38 cu ft!

Dual spring-assisted lid supports transfer the weight of the lid to a massive hinge assembly on the back of the kiln. This reduces the stress on the kiln wall for the long life that Paragon kilns are famous for.

The Ovation-10 lid elements use an element groove that eliminates element pins. The element coils are wider than the groove opening, so the elements stay in place without pins. The sidewall element coils are protected in dropped, recessed grooves. The advanced digital Sentry 2.0 12-key controller is standard on the Ovation-10.

	Maximum temperature: 1700°F
	3”-thick firebricks in the walls, top and floor for solid construction and slow natural cooling
	Heating elements in top mounted in pin-less grooves. Heating elements in the lower sidewalls
	Lock-in lid support
	Full-formed galvanized steel base for extra strength
	Louvered switch box, heavy duty wiring
	Two front tapered peepholes with plugs for a wide view

Note: Kilns are now coming with 18" stands which are taller than the ones shown.
