Paragon TnF 23-3 Kiln

The Studio Kiln

List Price $2050.00

Dogwood Ceramic Supply's Discounted Price $1400.00

    The Paragon TnF 23-3 is the traditional small studio kiln produced by Paragon.  With 5.10 cubic feet of interior volume (interior is 22 ½" wide by 22 ¼" deep) the TnF 23-3 is perfect for the small production studio or classroom.  The TnF 23-3 has 3" wall bricks to achieve the Energy Miser status and is capable of firing up to Cone 10.
    The TnF 23-3 is virtually identical to its larger brother the TnF 27-3 including the 35" above ground easy loading depth, LiteLid for ease of opening the kiln lid and of course the Sentry 2.0 Digital Controller.  The only difference between the TnF 23-3 and the TnF 27-3 is related to the width of the 27-3.  The TnF 23-3 is one piece construction as the exterior width of the kiln is narrow enough to enter through standard doorways without being disassembled.

Call for prices on multiple kiln purchases

    The TnF 23-3 is stocked by Dogwood Ceramic Supply for over the counter purchase by local and regional customers.  The shipping crate is approximately 36"w x 41"d x 42"h.  Please bring a truck with an adequate width bed and no bed cover, as this kiln, even when uncrated (uncrated height approximately 33"), will not fit into many SUV's or vans. The in-store price ($1540.00) is slightly higher than the drop shipped price due to warehouse and handling costs, however there are no freight charges for over the counter purchases from The Showroom inventory.  The price of the accessories remains the same as the drop ship prices.
