Building a Gas Fired Crucible Furnaceby David J. Gingery
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Dave will show you how to build a furnace that will enable you to melt 20 pounds of cast iron in a crucible with natural gas. When the melt is ready to pour, both the top and body of furnace raise up so that you can grasp the white hot crucible from the sides making the crucible easier and safer to control than if you had to use tongs to lift the crucible straight up as is done with other furnaces. Although charcoal is widely available, it is messy and somewhat expensive. Gas is low-cost and clean, but requires a more complicated burner. Dave will show you all the tricks, including how to build the centrifugal blower, so that you get a hot, efficient and quiet gas burner. You get the usual wall-to-wall how-to the detailed information that Dave is famous for. Six chapters cover basic design, building the furnace body, building the frame, building the burner, crucible and tongs, and operating the furnace. You get photographs, drawings and proven techniques. What Our Readers Are SayingBe the first to add a comment for a chance to win!Product Details
