Utilizing years of history and a plethora of design improvements, this truly mobile raku kiln is designed for efficient, easy, one person operation. No need to worry about lifting a heavy chamber over red-hot kiln shelves or damaging product as a result. Simply split the kiln in two, allowing quick access to the kiln shelves. The fully insulated fiber walls and a soft brick floor allows the kiln to heat and cool rapidly, eliminating the need to preheat.

Kiln Overview

Constructed from high temperature fiber in a laser cut and formed metal frame. The sides fold down to offer unparalleled access to the hot ware. One person can easily fire this kiln, load and unload it without assistance.

Insulating firebrick in a welded steel frame form the base of the kiln. Because of the fiber walls and soft brick base, the kiln heats and cools rapidly (eliminates the need to preheat). An entire heating cycle takes approximately 30-45 minutes using a propane tank and burner.

The folding sides are made of sheet metal and angle iron. The sides hinge from the base and are lined with 1″inch thick ceramic fiber. Two vent holes on top of the kiln can be covered to allow control of the firing. Large “peep” holes on two sides give easy visibility into the kiln to inspect the cones and for thermocouple placement.

The kiln is fired with a 75,000 BTU venturi burner in a fixed cradle. Modular construction allows easy storage or transportation. With the added casters the kiln can be moved in and out storage. The optional thermocouple safety shut-off system and pilot light provide a safe and reliable gas supply system.
