Sculpture Repair Request

I have had an Austin Sculpture delivered from the USA and sadly the head is entirely smashed, though the facial features could be used. I am hoping someone might be able to repair him? This is a piece I have hankered for to match his partner that I have had a good 40 years.

Please see photos relating to the damaged sculpture as well as a photo of how he should look.

If you think you are able to repair him, please contact me to discuss next steps.

Skutt Kiln KM1218 Electric Kiln & KilnMaster Controller

I am selling my beloved kiln. I love it, but due to workload I’m not productive enough to fill a kiln this size regularly so swapping for a smaller one (also interested in finding a smaller one approx 50 x 50 x 50 cm inside).

Bought in 2021 brand new from Cromartie Hobbycraft it has had 88 firings in total. It’s in great condition. Kiln shelves and props included.

Asking for £3,000 ono. Collection in London E3

“This high-capacity wired-in kiln requires fixed installation into your electricity supply.
The KM1218 is a large twelve-sided top-loading electric kiln designed for production studios, potteries, and schools requiring a dependable, high-volume kiln. Its wide 72 cm opening and 46 cm chamber depth provide ample space for larger work such as platters, bowls, or multiple layers of smaller pieces — making it ideal for both large-scale firing cycles and batch production.”

Shimpo NRA-04 Pugmill

Looking to buy a Shimpo pugmill in good working condition.

I am specifically looking for either the NRA-04S (stainless steel barrel) or the NRA-04 (aluminium barrel). I find these specific models offer the perfect balance of weight and compact size for my studio.

I am not looking for Gladstone models or the bulkier Shimpo “De-Airing” versions. 

Please get in touch if you have one to sell, or if you know of anyone upgrading their studio equipment.

Contact me with the condition, price, and your location.

Commission for dog sculpture

Very sadly we have lost our German Shepherds (Sasha and Kia) and we’re looking for a handmade figurine of them both, ideally side by side. We’ve had our previous dog (Sadie) made years ago but the artist is no longer trading.

Attached are photos of the Sadie sculpture as well as Sasha and Kia. The Sadie sculpture is about 5 inches in both height and length and we’d like a similar size sculpture for the other two.

We’re based in Lowestoft and are happy to discuss further details with interested artists.

Vent Axia Extractor Fan

Quiet and powerful Vent-Axia extractor fan, good for a pottery studio with brick walls, powerful enough to ventilate a classroom with a large kiln. 

Vent-Axia W161510 (6″) Axial Commercial Extractor Fan Soft-Tone Grey 220-240V. 

I bought it for £430 but will sell for £200 (collect from NR11 or pay for shipping). 

It was wrongly recommended to us for our studio but our plasterboard walls are too thin to install it, so it is unused, still in the box. Hence good if you have brick walls!

Old Cromartie Kiln

Extremely heavy Cromartie electric kiln. It’s very old and was originally obtained to convert to gas, but never got around to it. May still work as an electric kiln – but could not guarantee this.

Comes with 2 kiln shelves, props and some raw materials (including rutile).

Buyer to collect from Norwich. Will take at least 4 people to lift, and a weight-bearing vehicle will be needed for transport.

Asking £100 ono, but really I just want rid of it!
