AIM or JENKEN brands?
I think I have narrowed my kiln search down to two types. I am looking for a small kiln, to fire fast and do jewelry items. I have found the JEN KEN bead annealing kiln to be a good one, and I just found a better price on a PERFECTLY sized AIM brand jeweler's kiln. Does anyone know which brand is be...

kiln Recommendations
Hi all! I am finally in the market for my very first NEW kiln. Here is what I am after.....since my small tabletop kiln (which I bought VERY used) has a pyrometer that "died" last night (AND The thermocouple just "fell off"!!!!), I feel that the kiln is not going to last too much...

I always have borax on hand, but how much water do I add to make a proper flux? And if I use it straight out of the box, how? Do i just mix some of the powder in with the silver? do you melt the silver with a torch? If so, what do you use for a surface? A soldering block? Mine is dirty, how would I ...

re: sterling recycling
Hello all. I have tried melting my sterling scrap in the kiln, and all i ended up with was a "ball" of metal, even in the kiln. Tried it with a torch, and it literally FRIED. Any clues as to how to get a nice fluid melt? Should I have added some sort of flux? I need step by step directions...
