The Perfect Size for Creativity
Don't let the HS-16G's modest 16”x16”x6” dimensions fool you. Within this space, your creative visions take physical form through slumping, draping, casting, and fusing. It's the perfect playground for glass artists who dream big but have limited studio space.
User-Friendly Design
The kiln's clamshell design is a nod to convenience and accessibility, featuring easy front access that not only simplifies moving projects in and out but also facilitates intricate in-firing manipulation. Want to rake or adjust your pieces mid-firing? The HS-16G is your silent partner, making these tasks effortless.
Workstation Flexibility
With an option of a fully-removable floor, the HS-16G goes beyond being just a kiln. It allows you to seamlessly transition from kiln to workstation, bringing your project to wherever your inspiration flows. This feature is not just convenient; it's a catalyst for continuous creativity.
Pristine Firing Conditions
Your masterpieces deserve the best. That's why Hot Shot has encased the heating elements in Quartz Tubes, ensuring that your glass projects remain uncontaminated by flaking elements. This thoughtful design translates to purity in every piece you craft.
