24" inch round Kiln Shelves

[twin vision glass]

Hello to everyone. I am looking for 24 inch round kiln shelves for my deep skutt kiln. I really would like it in one piece and not joining as it is important to have a completely full shelf. I will waite patiently till someone might have some suggestions.

Upon further reflection, perhaps large square could be cut. BUT any large kiln shelf that would fit in a 26" wide Skutt.

Well I have now ordered also a few amazing drop out molds from Laurie Spray to go with my new shelf. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!! went to the hot shop and pulled some cane so will have alot of fun designing for these molds and new shelves.

Yes! Thank you! I needed a new shelf too. My golden retriever went running though my studio and my shelves were standing on end as I just primed them. Bang! Two fell over and one broke.

I'm curious what they use those 1 3/4" dia. Solid Silicon Carbide Posts for? Kiln posts?

Thanks!

I LOVE the Euclid company as I do believe they are Canadian AND that is the kiln type I use at Uroboros Glass Company when I go down for residency's . It is a large and wonderful top and bottom element kiln . So incredible to do large work in. (and they are so very very kind and helpful) . It is a dream place to go. Nothing but wonderful things to say about Uroboros. Les

I use Corelite shelves in my Euclid clamshells. The shelves are 25.5 inches in diameter and fit nicely in the 29" diameter kilns.

I have always wanted to try those shelves. Do you like them with Kiln Wash as the way I work I cannot use fiber. Les

[Terry Gallentine]

I never use fiber. I quick heat the shelf in the kiln to 500 degrees, take it out and spray a thin mix of kiln wash on it while it is hot. I have fired these shelves at least a hundred times and have had no problems with them. I elevate the shelf a couple of inches from the kiln floor with small softbrick posts.

I am a HUGE fan of your work and find you to be an inspiration for everyone here I am sure. Thank you for your input as it is greatly appreciated. Les

i have corelite shelves for both mama - 24" jen ken "round" - and papa - 28" square olympic - kilns. LOVE them! i only use kiln wash on them, often cheat and just add 4 layers new kiln wash on existing kiln wash unless i've had opal glass pull up the kilnwash. they clean well with a paint scraper - i sometimes follow up with a coarse sanding sponge.
