Key Features of the Olympic Kilns 30H Furniture Kit for Oval Kilns
Shelves: When it comes to the shelving, there are two variations you can choose from depending on which kiln you use.
If you are using the DM3018HE or DM3023HE, you have a "dual-media kiln" allowing you to switch from firing pottery to firing glass. When you are firing a lot glass, you won't want layers of shelving, but you will want a full shelf without spaces; so the kit is configured with (1) #30-oval full shelf sized at 26" x 39" x 1". You'll also get (2) each of 26" x 13" x 1" rectangle shelves and (4) each of 26" x 13" x 1" half shelves for when you use the kiln to fire pottery.
If you are buying this kit for use in one of the 30" Oval Kilns (3018HE, 3023HE, 3027HE, or 3031HE), the assumption is that you are primarily only firing pottery and ceramics where you'll create layers of shelving, and spaces are not a concern. That variation of the kit will will include (3) 26" x 13" x 1" rectangle shelves and (6) 26" x 13" x 1" half round shelves, shaped perfectly to fit snuggly within the kiln's interior chamber. These shelves offer ample space for a variety of projects, especially tailored for the dimensions of your kiln.
Diverse Post Sizes: Accommodating various project heights and arrangements, both variations of this kit contain an assortment of large square posts. You'll receive ten each of 4-, 6-, 8-, and 10-inch large square posts, allowing you to customize the setup within your kiln for different firing needs.
Kiln Protection: A 1 pound bag of kiln wash is also provided in either variation of this kit, a vital component for protecting your shelves from glaze drips. This ensures the longevity of your shelves and maintains the cleanliness and functionality of your kiln.
