Kiln and vacuum casting setup in the 1000$ range

What is your opinion on the small Rio Vacuum Casting/Investing
Machine (Item Number: 705108) or the one from Contenti (174-039
174-039)? Are there any other better setup in the 1000$ range?

What about a small kiln that can be used for dewax/burn
out/clay/enamel again in the 1000$ range?

Thanks

Hi Christian,

I’ve used the pepe vacuum casting machine and it work well. I also
have a burnout oven I bought directly from paragon which I still use
and I can say is top of the line quality. I recommend getting an
oven with programming ability.
