Fuse Your Glass Projects with The Creativity Pro Glass Kiln – Hot Shot 16G
Discover the new standard in glass art creation with the Hot Shot 16G Glass Kiln. Built with the discerning glass artist in mind, this kiln delivers precise, consistent heat across a 16" × 16" × 6" chamber and fires up to 1700°F (927°C), making it ideal for slumping, fusing, casting, annealing, and small drapes. Whether you’re firing small experiments or larger studio projects, the 16G offers professional reliability at home or in your studio.
The clamshell design with lift struts gives you smooth, one-hand access to the kiln floor — and the removable floor lets you set up projects at your workstation before sliding them inside. With enclosed quartz-tube elements, you don’t have to worry about element flakes damaging your work.
Hot Shot’s signature Cool-Touch Technology keeps the kiln surface safe in any setting. Choose the TAP II Controller for unlimited programs, Wi-Fi, and phone control, or go with the Spark Controller for simple touchscreen operation with presets and 30 custom programs.
