    Kind of a random question, but I was wondering if I could ask you a question about the furnace. Would you be able to make small batches of charcoal by putting wood into a closed container with a couple vent holes for the steam/wood gases?

    I bet you are glad that it's all done. It was a lot of copper though. Can't wait to see what you do next. Do you have a good U.K. supplier for kaowool and refractory coating. I melted mine trying to smelt cassiterite into tin. I won't be trying that in the devil forge again. Nice video.

    I’m thinking about melting my copper x I’m a plumber and have hundreds of pounds of it in scrap. Does it cost more propane than it’s worth to melt? And what size forge would be the best?

    • @meltingipswich
      @meltingipswich  10 місяців тому +1

      Hi there I would say it not cost effective if you just want to scrap them but if you find an alternative buyer you can make good money when it’s a pure copper ingot but if your just scrapping them then it will cost you more in propane. I use a 10kg devil forge

    what happens if you don't preheat your tongs, molds and lifters?

    • @meltingipswich
      @meltingipswich  19 днів тому +1

      Steam explosion. Imagine having a red hot saucepan with nothing in it and then dropping a tiny bit of water in it you get an instant steam reaction now multiply that by 10 - 15 but the moisture is inside the metal. You then touch it onto 1100°c molten metal that’s going to go bang 💥
