replacement lid?
Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2018 12:37 pm
I have an 8 yr old skutt hotstart kiln. Like typical skutt kiln owners, I have a crumbling element groove and loose pin elements. 4 to 5 pins fall out on every firing. Kiln dust falls in each project. So much that I am really frustrated. I am in a dilemma. Should I replace the lid or purchase a new kiln? How much cost difference is there between the two options?
How much is a new lid with or without elements. Elements in old kiln are maybe 8 months old. I have a guy who can replace the lid for $150. The floor, thermocoupler, sides etc other than the lid are in mint condition.
Thanks in advance for all your help in this matter,
