1 0369-000 KS-70B X-LONG SHUT OFF TUBE $48.00

I believe it is ceramic, gluing wont work with the extreme heat but doesn't look sealed.

If it's not sealed on the end, plug it in and watch the temps to see if it works.
If it is open on the end and does work Tilt it down 1/4" to keep dust from landing and pitting the element if doesn't interfere with anything.

Thanks, I could find the tubes but not the "claw". Unfortunately it's not a skutt kiln, they bought Dawson the company that made Kiln Sitter (the device this is from), the kiln sitter was a generic piece used on many kilns, mine is a blue diamond (also no longer in business). Luckilly found kilnparts.com so they got me the right tube, now hopefully they have the "claw" just have to wait til tomorrow to talk to human.

@ANC will try the sg and bicarb if I cant get replacement. I have the piece that broke off, I just dont know how much stress it will see.

Got it for "Free" from a friends mom cause she liked the piece I gifted. Usually have to learn and fix a few things for free.

The plastic claw holds the release switch to shut the kiln off, it also holds the counter weight so the rod dosent push down too hard on the cone a prematurely shut it off? I dont think the thermo couple have for my multimeter is high enough temp but you seem to know something about this so if I cant get the replacement part I will be hitting you up.

Darn, I'm so sorry! I was hoping it might be something readily available and cheap!

I woke up out of a dead sleep, at 4am, to a screaming water alarm and have been vacuuming water up in my basement since. Fucking switch on my sump pump is acting up, gotta flick it a couple times till it kicks on, probably dirty contacts. My feet are fucking freezing cause I ran down there in slippers and immediately stepped into ice cold water, which woke me up instantly.

I'm in a great fucking mood right now, hoping this bowl puts me back to sleep.

They just delivered a set of earphones, same ones as my wife lost in the mugging. It is a surprise for her.
She has been moaning about the shitty earphones she has had to use since. These are pretty nice phones with great range and very high efficiency.

I'm so happy we get to do COD deliveries... way to use money that hasn't been through the bank if you know what I mean.
