A Revolution in Fusing!
Imagine fusing glass right in your microwave. With the Microwave kiln you can get started creating kiln-fired glass with minimal investment and maximum convenience. Place your project on shelf paper on the base of the kiln and fire for 4 to 10 minutes, times may vary depending on your microwave. Excellent for glass pins and cabochons. Also works well for copper enameling. You can even use it with most fusible papers and decals, including dichroic slides, to create custom jewelry fast. For use with a 1000 to 1200 watt microwave with metal interior. Results may vary based on microwave.
Projects shown below were created with the Microwave Kiln by glass artist Melanie Churchill.
Delphi Tip: Remove the glass tray and spinner from the microwave before placing kiln inside, as shown below. Delphi recommends not using the same microwave for food and kiln and to begin testing with a shorter time, following manufacturer instructions.
