Title: just checking kiln prog??
Post by: turquoise on April 08, 2009, 02:28:45 PM
Hi I have  had my kiln for 1 year now and have not changed the prog at all.

Anyway just been speaking to someone who commented that the was it has been set sounds odd.

I got the schedule off here and it seemed to be the one that most people use.

What do people have their kilns set at, my kiln is a SC2

yep, me too, except for some reason I've set my up at anneal at 522 rather than 520! I have a seperate program from boro batch annealing which goes up to 570deg and cools at a much slower rate

Yes this is the one I use so I do not really see the problem.

I do pretty much that, although I was using 520, I'm now using 525, and my hold is about 5 hours cos I just anneal as I go and then half an hour to an hour after the last bead I tell it to ramp down.
