Is your kiln programmable? And did you get a manual with it? When I got mine, I also bought a book to teach me but everything I needed to know to get started was in the manual. If you have any questions, I would be willing to try to help. You will love it once you get the hang of it.

No it didn't come with a manual and I don't think it is programable. It has a kiln setter on the side and I was able to find a manual for that. Haven't been able to find a manual for the kiln itself. It's an Olympic 129A. I guess I need HELP????

Cindy/Klinger just bought one, used, but very nice, and no instructions tho, but then she turned around and found another ad that a gal was selling fusing glass, books on fusing, tools, etc!!! And so I'll be visiting Cindy more often!!!ha!
