Tips & Techniques

@ We're so thrilled to hear you are enjoying your Fuseworks Microwave Kiln! The Fuseworks Microwave Kiln is available in one size only, but can be purchased separately from the kit as item number 424849. If you have damaged the kiln base or lid and wish to replace the damaged piece only, replacements can special ordered by phone or online - just request item number 424849B for the base, or 424849T for the lid. Unfortunately, a kiln repair cement likely won't allow you to repair the base of a microwave kiln properly. If the damage is minimal, you may be able to simply avoid positioning glass over the divot and continue using the base.

@ A trick I learned from our expert lead instructor is that for sharply angled points it can sometimes be difficult to cut as a single cut. To achieve the sharp corners, cut the came slightly longer than needed. Using lead nippers, make cuts to separate the "heart" of the came from both "faces" of the came. Cut the faces of the came to the length and angle needed to fit your pattern, then trim the heart of the came to match the shortest edge of your angle cut. It should now assemble neatly to join your pieces.
