Alumina Hydrate
Click here for More Info

Alumina Hydrate is used to support Silver-Clay during firing, Either make a pile on the shelf or put it in a little unglazed bowl. Alumina hydrate is also called glass release or glass kilnwash as glass will not stick to it during firing. Using Alumina Oxide will avoid the boiling off of water in the hydrate.

Kiln FireFly 120 Volt with PYROMETER ^10

Introducing the Paragon FireFly Kiln

photo of kiln

The kiln has plenty of power to reach 2350 degrees F.

The portable and convenient Paragon FireFly will give you unbridled freedom. It plugs in almost anywhere on a household 120 volt outlet. Take this kiln to seminars or on vacation.

The firing results will thrill you. Create breathtaking glass bracelets and pendants in the 8" square x 4 1/2" high interior. Fire small glass casting molds and even drop molds. But you are not limited to glass. Fire porcelain or stoneware pendants and beads. Test glazes. The kiln has plenty of power to reach 2350 degrees F.

The Paragon FireFly is an excellent choice for beginners. It fires rapidly. Fuse glass in minutes. Yet you can also slow it down with the infinite control switch. The pilot light glows brightly during firing.

Enjoy digital accuracy on a modest budget: Watch the kiln temperature on the hand-held, easy-to-read digital pyrometer, which is included at no extra charge. The pyrometer will help you determine the cooling rate of difficult glazes or know when to begin monitoring glass. It takes the guesswork out of firing.

The reliable hand-held pyrometer weighs only 5 ounces and measures in degrees F up to 1999F. (Please note: If you fire hotter than 1999 F, you will need a pyrometer that reads higher temperatures.) The liquid crystal display is easy to read even in bright daylight. Replace the Type-K thermocouple in seconds with a simple plug-in connection.

The Paragon FireFly is made of durable 2 1/2" thick insulating firebrick, which stores heat for slow cooling and safe annealing of smaller glass projects. The solid 2 1/2" thick firebrick top and bottom help seal in the heat.

To strengthen the firing chamber, the firebrick corners are fitted together like ...

Micro Torch, Butane not included
Click here for More Info

Micro Torch, cheap but works great for firing PMC3 and Art Clay 650! Does not include butane, available anywhere tobacco is sold!


Torch Firing Process

  1. Allow the work to dry overnight or drive off moisture with a hairdryer, coffee warmer or in a slow oven. Torch firing is not recommended for large items.
  2. Place the work on a soldering block or fire brick, which is in turn set on either a fireproof surface or something that can be singed (like a piece of plywood). If you are working on the kitchen counter and the piece rolls off the block you don't want to scar the countertop.
  3. Light the torch and hold it so the flame is nearly vertical with the tip of the cone about 3/4" away from the work. Within a minute the piece will be enveloped in a soft flame as the binder burns away. The flame will soon go out by itself. Within another minute the piece will start to glow red. Continue heating until this becomes a bright and luminous color. At this point, glance at a clock.
  4. Hold this color as uniformly as possible for at least 5 minutes (10 minutes will produce a denser result) glancing away periodically to relieve your eyes. When the time is up, turn off the torch and allow the piece to cool at least until the red color is gone, at which point it can be quenched.

Paragon QuikFire 6—From Zero to 1000°F in Five Minutes!

The QuikFire 6 brings instant gratification to ceramics, glass fusing, enameling, silver, and china painting. Small glass pieces can be fired and cooled to room temperature in only 30 to 40 minutes. Small ceramic pieces take only 40 to 50 minutes. No more waiting to fill your larger kiln to test-fire a new technique or new glaze. No more waiting until morning to see freshly fired ware.

Demonstrate the QuikFire to your family and watch their astounded reaction. Demonstrate it at craft shows, and crowds will gather.

Experimenting with the QuikFire is fun. Instead of risking a good piece of greenware on an untried technique, you can fire throw-away clay scraps and view the results in minutes. This kiln is a learning tool you will use over and over, whether you’re a beginner or a master.

The QuikFire is a ceramic fiber shell with an embedded element. It measures 6" x 6" x 6" inside. The shell rests on a ceramic fiber base with steel stand. The QuikFire is rated to 2000°F. It fires on 120 volts and needs no other heating source. At only 1560 watts, it uses less power than many hair driers.

To see how your work is progressing, tilt the shell up an inch for several seconds. Read temperature at a glance with the built-in pyrometer, which indicates when to start watching the ware inside the kiln.

You can make projects faster with two or more shelves. As the kiln is firing, prepare your next project on the spare shelf in the furniture kit. Remove ...

Paragon SC-1 Silver & Glass Kiln

The digital SC-1 kiln fires PMC, Art Clay Silver, decals, china paint, and glass up to 2000°F. The SC-1 is smaller than the SC-2 and therefore very convenient as a traveling kiln. Take the SC-1 to seminars and set it up in just minutes. This may be the kiln of choice for those silver clay artists who have limited work space or who make only a few PMC or Art Clay Silver pieces per session. Fire them without wasting the space of a larger kiln.

The SC-1 fires automatically at the rate and temperature you enter. A large, brightly lit display prompts for firing rate, temperature and hold time. Use the hold feature to automatically soak any type of PMC and Art Clay Silver to their recommended times.

The high-tech ceramic fiber firing chamber is wrapped in a steel inner case. The outer steel case remains cool due to the layer of air between it and the inner case. In addition, the case is slotted for air circulation. Electrical components, located in the base, stay cool even during long hold times.

The fast-firing element is embedded in the firing chamber shell. Each SC-1 includes a 1/4” thick ceramic fiber shelf.

  • On/off safety switch
  • Built-in base; no extra stand needed
  • Door opens 180 degrees for easy loading

2. Turn off the burner and place the PMC3 or Art Clay 650 piece on that spot that glowed the brightest.

3. Turn on the burner LOW and watch for the binder burning out (smoke).

4. When the smoking stops turn up the burner until the silver clay turns red (turn off the lights to see it better).

5. Set the stove's timer for 10 minutes.

Make sure the silver clay is as dry as possible. Don't try this with very large thick pieces or large stones. If the silver clay glows bright orange turn the stove down.
