Paragon's newest kiln is the oval Ovation-10.
03/28/2006
Paragon’s newest glass kiln is the glistening Ovation-10. It will inspire you to make glass. It is rugged, reliable, and designed to last. Enjoy fusing, slumping, pate de verre, and painting in this large production kiln. If you have been firing a smaller kiln, you will be amazed at the space inside the Ovation-10. Fire several large projects such as bowls or platters in one load. Dual spring-assisted lid supports transfer the weight of the lid to a massive hinge assembly on the back of the kiln. This reduces the stress on the kiln wall for the long life that Paragon kilns are famous for. The Ovation-10 lid elements use an element groove that eliminates element pins. The element coils are wider than the groove opening, so the elements stay in place without pins. The sidewall element coils are protected in dropped, recessed grooves. The advanced digital Sentry 2.0 12-key controller is standard on the Ovation-10. Features of the Sentry 2.0 12-key Controller on Paragon Glass Kilns - Add Time Key adds five minutes to a temperature hold with each key press during firing.
