The Baby Phoenix is the furnace/glory hole combination based on our popular Phoenix Furnace. A perfect addition to any hot shop, we designed this one with versatility and affordability in mind. It is side-fired instead of top-fired, with a Pine Ridge Ribbon burner and variable speed blower. For our Canadian friends, a CSA approved Midco burner is also available. A freestanding 40 pound crucible is included in the price. Slower heat-up on the freestanding set-up is recommended to help prolong the life of your crucible(s).**

*Important note about melting color:
We do not provide technical information about melting color. It is up to the furnace owner/user(s) to follow appropriate safety protocols according to your local, state, and/or federal guidelines for hazardous materials. The Baby Phoenix owner is responsible for conducting their own research and safe operations, and for any potential infractions and their consequences that may result from the use of this or any other Phoenix or Dragon furnace or related equipment. Mobile Glassblowing Studios, LLC assumes no liability for Baby Phoenix owner and/or user's operation of equipment. |
**Important note about free standing crucibles:
Careful attention to slow heat-up and cool-down is advised to prolong the life of your crucible(s). Due to the variable nature of firing a free standing crucible, the crucibles are not covered under warranty. We recommend having a back-up crucible on hand at all times so that you can continue to work even in the event of crucible failure. As always, we recommend removing unused glass from your crucible at the end of your work session prior to cool-down.
