Yes, that's right a gas powered kiln! Portable, compact and less expensive. Perfect for those who are on the go. Use it at shows and demonstrations where there is no electricity. Sit on the beach in Mexico an blow glass. Use it if you you have no or limited electrical power. Use it if your power company turned off your electricty for non payment! Just insert a common propane torch through the hole in the side of the kiln. A pyrometer, purchased seperately, is necessary to measure temperature. This bead kiln is made with insulated fire brick. This style kiln has the unique feature of being gas powered, no electricity needed! All kilns should be kept 12" from any flammable materials. But remember gas kilns like this one are not as easy to adjust the temperature as an electric kiln.

Why have a side door opening for a glass bead kiln?

• Comfort. Sure, one could put a mandrel into any kiln. But when you lift the lid a blast of 1000 degree heat will hit you. The unique feature (invented by HotGlass) of this bead kiln is a side door opening. This allows you to insert beads through the side without much heat discomfort.

Built in bead rack that holds many times more beads than any other kiln the same size!

Close up view of the side opening.

Even though the opening is only 6½" wide by 2¼" high, many beads can be stacked upward. Notice from this picture how many beads are just on the left 2" of the kiln. (The photo is of the 9" kiln, the HG6B6 kiln will be 2½" smaller than what is pictured.) Pictured on the right is the optional glass rod holder. Place glass rods on this rack to preheat the ends. When you are ready to use that color, simply remove the rod and go directly into the torch flame. This eliminates the need to preheat the tip of the glass rod in the torch! See the web material on the top of the picture. That is HotGlass's unique high temperature fiber cloth door. We pulled the cloth up to expose the inside of the kiln for this picture. This cloth door covers the door to keep much of the heat in the kiln. Because it is flexable, the cloth will bend around any mandrels or glass rods protruding from the kiln.
