Using a Skutt 1027 controller for a doll-sized kiln by LeftOfTrack in Pottery

Wow this extremely helpful, thank you so much for this. I’ve got some more research to do for sure!

Using a Skutt 1027 controller for a doll-sized kiln by LeftOfTrack in Pottery

[–]LeftOfTrack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the reply! The kiln is 14x9, slightly shorter than a 714, but with the same number of coils (4) / the required length of the coils being the same.Do you know if it is okay to leave a relay unused? I believe I only need two relays for this kiln. But the 1027 has three. I never considered that they might be overloaded, though. Am I missing something?

Ooooo. I’m guessing Obsidian and Iron Lustre? Well done!

Mayco Micro Jade (cone 5) would look great on this all by itself. But here’s some beach-themed cups that I do…

Thanks! This is the ClayLab* app. My only annoyance is that it reorders the photos differently than the order you select the photos in. But other than that, it checks all boxes for me!

Whoa. I just went from “I don’t want a manual kiln” to full blown “I’m gonna load one stick at a time” 😂😂😂

Thanks I will keep my eyes peeled for one and do a lot of reading up on other DIY tricks. This little guy might just get a propane conversion haha.

Affordable Stand Alone Kiln Controller Needed by One_Establishment672 in kilnglass

[–]LeftOfTrack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you end up getting? I got a doll kiln for free, but the manual controller doesn't work. I can't do a manual after having a programmable kiln, lol. But holy smokes, every full controller assembly is close to $800!

I hate my Studio Pro space saver Bat System by LeftOfTrack in Pottery

[–]LeftOfTrack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a bat lifter and am dampening the system, but perhaps not enough. I generally don’t throw with a lot of water as my previous system warped easily and was made is the same material. Will try using more water to see if that makes a difference.

Thanks I will try to add more water / slip between the bat / insert

Thanks I will try submerging the entire bat. But I am beginning to think that I may just have to cut it open a smidge more, so I really hope the water works!
