It is hip to be square! The JK2 is a perfect square that allows you to work larger and more efficiently than ever before. This is a stellar fusing and slumping kiln. Being square makes it really easy to do sets of plates, bowls, and tiles. If you're making sinks, this is a perfect option for you! This is the 15" deep version which allows you to fit the deep sink molds....and more. It also allows for the taller draping molds... We really love this one! This Kiln No Longer Includes Peep Holes.

Why Upgrade from Mechanical Relays to Solid-State Relays?
Mechanical Relays, which come standard on most kilns have internal moving parts which over time wear out and need to be replaced. Kiln manufacturers recommend you replace your mechanical relays approximately every 2 years. Solid-state relays have no moving parts and last far longer than standard mechanical relays and offer far better temperature control during hold times. Since solid-state relays also have no moving parts to wear out, they NEVER need to be replaced.
You will notice that solid-state relays are silent. The only sound you will hear is just the reassuring hum of the heating elements. So, this factory upgrade saves you potential down time from having to wait for new relays to arrive, potential over-fires from relays sticking in the closed position, potential aggravation from having to learn how to remove and replace the mechanical relays yourself. We think this upgrade is well worth the cost and will save you time and aggravation over the life of your kiln.
The kiln went through 4 computer touch screen panels before we finally replaced the thermo coupler, transformer and touch screen panel. I also installed a 60-amp circuit braker. I have had 4 successful firings now. I believe we have it figured out with the help of Mike at Jen-Ken and Scott at Tap. They were very helpful and patient with all my problems.

The had to build the kiln to order and delivered it several months ahead of their expected delivery date. They were very helpful in evaluating the options and I am very happy with the kiln. It fires faster than my much smaller kiln and also seems to be able to cool down more quickly.
