  Two Electric Kilns: 10 cu ft. (fires to cone 10) and 4.0 cu ft (fires to cone 8). Will fire bisque and glazes; cast or hand built. Charge by the piece and based on whether it is low fire or high fire. I do request a label from the package of slip, clay, glazes that are used on the pieces. I only fire my kilns on the weekends, due to the fact that I work a full time job elsewhere. Therefore I have to make the statement that I can only fire at my convenience (which is just about every weekend). I assume no responsibility for body or glaze failures during firing.

  I have a 4.7 cubic foot, L&L easy fire electric kiln (e23s). I generally fire every couple of weeks, on the weekends; alternating between bisque and glaze. I usually fire bisque to cone 06 and glaze to cone 6. I charge 4 cents per cubic inch and you would also be responsible for any damage caused by your work. Also, I encourage you to be present for the loading of your pieces into the kiln. The kiln is located in my home studio in my basement in South Duxbury, VT. South Duxbury is in between Waterbury and Waitsfield.

  I have a large skutt kin which can fire as high as cone 8. Prices are negotiable, but probably won't run much over 75 cents per large piece, such as a bowl or pitcher.

  We have a new Skutt model KM-1027 computer controlled kiln, plus two other cone fire control kilns, one medium and one very small. Our pricing is based on 50% of the cost of our greenware, so we will have to do some estimating depending on the size of the piece to be fired. We also offer greenware, bisque, tools, glazes, acrylics, and brushes for sale. If you do your own pouring we also sell earthenware slip. Monday night from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM is our open studio night.
