Hello:

I just bought an 20 year old Cress FE29P electric kiln but unfortunately
it came with no manual. When I contacted Cress they said they did not
have any back issues of the manual. So, I'm hoping someone out there
can tell me a few details about firing with this kiln. There are
setting for the firing speed (A, B, C, D - normal to low plus manual),
plus there is a thumbwheel dial which can be set from 1 to 10. I'd
really appreciate it if someone can give me some advice on setting the
dials for bisquing (cone 06) and glazing (cone 6). Thanks very much!

Tamie,

It's your lucky day! I have a Cress Kiln Owners Manual that you may
have. Email me off line with your address and I will pop it in the mail!
I was going to purchase a Cress kiln but the deal fell apart but I still
have the manual. Glad to see it will go to good use.
