The Scarab line of kilns were designed by renowned Flameworker, Marcel Braun specifically for working with Borosilicate Glass. The controller has simple to use built in programs for Annealing, Striking and Repairing or you can design your own. The doors were engineered for smooth operation and a perfect fit. The fan cooled solid state relays are reliable, quiet and easy to access with the unique slide out chassis. Marcels custom designed Secondary point rest is now standard on all Scarab Models. The secondary point rest slides in and out and up and down to accommodate just about any length and diameter of tubes and rods. Custom rolling stands are also available for all Scarab models except the Micro.
The Controller
The software for the COE Controller was developed by Flameworker Marcel Braun to fit the specific needs of the Boro Flameworker.
It can be easy as pressing Go to start working and Go twice to anneal your piece and call it a night.
The Controller is programmed to heat to 1100 F but you can set it for whatever temperature you want.
You can choose between the 3 preset Annealing programs or create your own.
Marcel knows how important to know how long your piece is at he set point temperature. That is why he programmed a feature in the controller that tells you exactly that amount of time. If you dip below that temperature it waits until it is back to set point and restarts the clock.
It also includes built in striking and repair programs.
The “Doggie” Door
The Doggie Door (sometimes referred to as bead door) is the brainchild of master flameworker Marcel Braun. It is constructed using a channeled stainless steel frame which holds a section of soft fiberboard. When you close the door it rests gently on your glass handles, sealing in the heat without scratching the glass. If they ever wear out you can replace them easily and inexpensively. The doors are counterbalanced to stay open on there own with weighted wood handles that stay cool to the touch.
