Mike & Deb Crowley own the Glasshive which is located in Newport Oregon. They are the hosts of GlassStock Glass Gathering which is held every August. FiredDesires owns and enjoys the kilns that are made by Mike and can't recommend them enough. If your in the market for a fine kiln, off-shelf or built to your specs, get in touch with them.
