The Olympic Kilns GF3ETLC: Dual-Loading Innovation for Precision Glass Firing

Unleash Creative Flexibility with Advanced Top and Clamshell Loading

Experience unparalleled versatility with the Olympic Kilns GF3ETLC, a kiln designed to elevate your glasswork with its unique combination of top-loading and clamshell-loading capabilities. Offering a spacious 25″ x 25″ wide by 9″ deep firing chamber, this kiln gives you the freedom to tackle large projects and intricate glass designs with ease. Whether you’re flash venting, performing delicate glass raking, or positioning multiple layers of glass, the GF3ETLC’s dual-loading design ensures that every step of your process is convenient and precise.

Precision Heating for Consistent Results

The GF3ETLC is engineered to deliver perfect, uniform heat distribution with its dual-element system. The lid element supplies the radiant heat needed for reaching optimal fusing temperatures, while the wall elements ensure consistent conductive heat throughout the firing chamber. This advanced heating setup guarantees even temperature distribution across your entire project, minimizing the risk of cold spots and ensuring flawless results every time. With a maximum temperature of 1700°F, this kiln is versatile enough for a wide range of glass techniques, making it an essential tool for both novice and experienced artists.

Built for Durability and User Convenience

Constructed with a robust stainless steel jacket and supported by an 18” tall metal stand, the GF3ETLC is designed for durability and long-term performance in any studio environment. The lid lift assist feature makes it easy to open and close the kiln, even when working on larger, heavier projects. The Bartlett 3 Key electronic controller simplifies the programming of your firing schedules, allowing you to set and adjust ramp-hold programs with ease for consistent, high-quality results.

Customization Options for Enhanced Performance

For artists who demand more control and flexibility, the GF3ETLC offers a range of optional upgrades. Enhance your kiln’s capabilities with the Genesis touchscreen controller or the 12-key digital KilnStar controller, both of which provide advanced ramp-hold programming features like delay start, preheat, and skip step. Additional options include an automatic lid shutoff switch to ensure no electricity is flowing to the elements when the kiln is opened, flash arm for quick venting, and quartz glass viewing windows for real-time observation of your projects.

Optimize Your Studio Setup with a Tailored Furniture Kit

Maximize the efficiency of your GF3ETLC kiln with a custom furniture kit designed to enhance your workflow. The kit includes two layers of shelving for efficient stacking, assorted square posts, ceramic paper, and a one-pound bag of kiln wash, ensuring that your glass pieces are evenly supported and heated during firing. Whether you choose the standard kit or build your own, these accessories help you maintain a well-organized and productive studio.

The Olympic Kilns GF3ETLC is a complete solution that empowers glass artists to achieve their creative potential. With its dual-loading design, precision heating, and customizable options, this kiln is built to support your artistic journey and deliver consistently excellent results. Let the GF3ETLC be the key to unlocking new possibilities in your glass artistry.
