• CERAMIC KILN SHELF KIT: https://www.riogrande.com/product/pmc-kiln-ceramic-shelf-kit/703080
••• NOTE: I include this here, because if you’re ordering from Rio, it’s a convenient
way to order kiln shelves and posts. However, I prefer to use Solderite Boards for firing
my metal clay. This kit of shelves that Rio sells are heavy ceramic, and though more
durable than Solderite (also sold by Rio), are not necessary if you’re just going to be
firing a single shelf at a time. You can purchase the 1/2” kiln posts, that come with
this kit, through pottery suppliers (see Amazon and Clay King, this list).
