KILN FOR
ALL REASONS
10 CU FT. BAILEY ELECTRIC KILN
WITH KILN SITTER CONTROL
$575.00
Model 2927-10, Kiln Sitter LT-3K
This is a top-loading, high-fire
kiln (goes to stoneware temperatures—2,300 F). I bought it 3 years
ago from a little old man from Hanover, a hobby potter, who made
work for the New Hampshire League of Craftsmen. He (Treat Arnold was
his name, and he sold it because he was moving to “the old folks
home” in Hanover) bought it from the original purchaser, a little
old lady from West Leb, Julie Moran.
All upstanding Hanoverians, who
would not have abused the kiln.
My intentions of starting up a
pottery haven’t materialized and the kiln is not in our moving
plans. I never used it. It is in its original state from when I
bought it from Treat:
The coils look good. He said he
replaced one, and there is an extra replacement with it should the
need arise. It needs a new top and could use a new bottom. I bought
it knowing those needs, and never got around to fixing it up. I
believe the tops and bottoms (which often need replacing) are around
$100.00 each. Treat said the kiln was near new when he bought it,
and he had it for 15 years. The Kiln Sitter is Model LT-3K, with six
settings.
The kiln can be viewed at my
house in Bridgewater, VT, 10 minutes west of Woodstock. As far as
delivery is concerned, you would need to come and get it. I moved it
myself in a small pick-up truck (I don’t have the truck anymore).
The kiln comes apart in one larger lower bottom piece, and one upper
piece. Quite manageable for the little monster it is.
