Have you tried Potclays in stoke on Trent? They do a good range of
kilns. most pottery kilns will be ok for glass as long as you have the
right kiln minder.
Also have you tried the new ready mixed investment called "Glass"
made by SRS Ltd (uk) it works very well and saves buying Molochite and
plaster plus addittives seperatley.

most pottery kilns are not, i repeat not well suited for fusing. buy a
fusing kiln if that is what you want to do
