a friend just got a kiln and found this one on sale. it would be a great kiln the two down sides are 4 inch hight but as you can kiln on side you could medium sculptures or pipes and it run at 15 amp, so you need it on a 20 amp breaker with 12 gauge wire.
I know guy that do production spoons with this kiln and love it.
$690 for the blue bird xl. I don't know what kind of sale it is it look like it more till you go to put it in you cart and then this page and price pops up.

these smaller size draw lower amps so if the wireing is a limiter you just lose space.
