A studio does’t run by itself and sometimes requires more than just turning on the lights and pickle pot. Today our studio tech (a.k.a. my husband) had to replace the thermocouple in my lost wax kiln. Not a major repair but the kiln can’t function without it.

It is the kind of part that is very fragile. The sensor lives at the back inside of the kiln, and if it is accidentally touched in loading or onloading, or if you overload the kiln which creates a lot of soot it toasts the sensor.
