With so many Gold smelting furnaces on the market , we wanted to see if we could build one for under $300 dollars that would get up over 2000 degrees and do everything that we needed it to do. So this is what we came up with and they are so easy and cheap to build. The only thing I would do different is use Ceramic Fiber insulation blanket instead of the Perlite and Refractory cement because it is easier to install and replace or use a Potatoe instead ua-cam.com/video/8DF2SYQIobg/v-deo.html.
If you have better ideas please leave them below in the comments section so we can all learn from them and smash that like button...smash it HARD
My hot water tank just tanked. I'm going to build one out of it and see if I gain more heat with the cast iron.
Was that your kid? That sure doesn’t look like the old miner of 2024!
how did you guess @@duellingrecliners
HI Jeff, this is Jörg from germany writing... i want to know if there is Goldore where you used to search cause it looked so... se ya in the videos
SWEET! Also, one of your new patrons @JamesSandzik ... Let's Go!
Awesome a mechanic a plumber a welder a baker a gold miner what else don't we know about the man the mith the legend, Jeff Williams an slim welcome back slim. Be safe ✌️ 🙏
Could you imagine being on a hike in Nowhere, Arizona, overlooking the beautiful desert landscape only to see a man and a skeleton on a 3-wheeler cruising along the valley floor. FAR OUT!!
Nice furnace build Jeff!
thanks my brother
If someone did see that, they would say, "Hey, isn't that our favourite Gold Miner, Pole Dance and joggalist, Jeff Williams..!!!" 🤣👋
... Unless that person was naked, in which case it's that other guy we try to avoid. 🙄
nice of Slim to let you drive 👍 😎furnace
I hope someone takes me in gold mining adventures after I'm gone. That's respect for your friend.
Always good to see Slim. Those old trailblazers were a blast
I love these older videos . I think old Slim should make comeback.
me to
Wow jeff has all kinds of skills. Guitar, geologist, fabrication, mechanics . That's pretty awesome
and good looking too . Lol
Thanks, Jeff. I see you're out low riden with Slim again, Safe Journeys.
you know it ....grab them nugget and ride
How fregging cool is that. Once again Jeff you and your videos cease to amaze me. Have a great day buddy.
thanks my brother
That is seriously cool.
I love when Jeff uses his real voice!!!
Of course, the Heavy Metal motorcycle ride with Slim, at the end, is also a mandatory step in the build process. ;-)
The guitar solos are just deadly !!!
LMAO!!!😂😂😂😂
THE END!!!!😂😂😂
You are a regular JEFF of all trades. Just amazing all the skills you showcase every week. You need some apprentices to carry on your legacy.
If there is anyone out there ever, who has singularly helped explain and demonstrate how to get and deal with gold....more than my man Jeff here....then state his name..
.but you cant can ya❤
Thanks Jeff for keeping the dream alive❤
Careful pouring on concrete. Spilled molten metal can cause the residual moisture in the concrete to flash to steam and explode. Molten metal will spray in every direction. Lay down sacrificial wood sheet (yes it will burn, but slowly and it won't explode) or 1/2 inch layer of dry sand. I poured bronze once and spilled some on concrete. We were hopping around avoiding flying metal for a few seconds there. Someone else later picked up those splatter pieces and turned them into a very interesting art piece. The rapid differential cooling effect of concrete and flying through the air caused very interesting shapes and heat colors to form in the metal (like flame painting on copper - google it if you've never seen it).
great advice ...thanks
Hell Yeah Professor Jeff!!!
MAD FABRICATING SKILLS BRUTHA!!!
Jeff the welder? Dude I get more respect for you every time I see a video. Good on you for wearing the welders hat
thanks
Multi talented gentleman 🙂👍👍👍
This video screams 1992 vibes. Jeff was and still is top tier cool
thanks
I saw the original version of this video years ago, that’s about when I subbed to this channel and got back into hobby gold prospecting. Love seeing it again.
thanks
Looks like Slim's at it again!
Good to see Slim on the trail for AU
ok. The more I watch the more you are the GOAT!
5:15 😮🤯 young jett. nice sir. thanks for the visual blueprints.
He he ya grabbed one out of the vault. I remember watching it the first time 9 years ago. I think I had just stubbled onto the channel.
Jeff, I know that you are acquainted with Jason at MBMLLC, and his ultra-cheap furnace is my go-to build as a backyard melting hobbyist. You're in need of a more durable, long-term setup, so your fabrication was far better suited to your needs for both melting AND smelting. The pivoting lid was a sweet detail, too. I also lack a good arc welder, and only have a benchtop Harbor Freight stick welder that won't do anything heavy.
Jeff,, jack of all trades😊. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS WITH YOUR BACKYARD GRILL GUYS😂. Slim can’t do what Jeff does. Jeff were you pouring hotcake mix into that muffin pan🤣🤣. Jeff was traveling so fast on that ATV in the end that Slim last all his meat. Well done as always,, you and Lila 😊
you know it brother ....the wat momma use to make them .... hahahhhaha
@@Askjeffwilliams yeah,, old school
Dang if it ain’t Little Jeff 2.0 😂
Yes had to watch it again I love that kinda stuff.
That was pretty cool, Nice job man!
Mr Williams,.. you are my Goddamned hero buddy..! 🤠
"All praise to the big JW!" 🙏👍👍👍👍
TONY !!!!!!! hahahhahh thanks my brother from another mother ....now get over here and lets find that Shiney
Hum, pretty cool man.... And nice to see Slim out and about...
I love the way Jeff, every once in a while you throw in a little snippet (like building the rack on the quad) that has Roy and Slim, keeping the memory alive. Miss them both just like you do. Keep doing what you do best, find that shiny, explore and fill us with you knowledge buddy. Hugs to you, Lila and of course Nevada Jack
thanks my brother ....you know we love to do that ...we miss the very , very much my brother ..... thanks
I've seen em made cheaper and easier but not as kool as this one. Way to go Jeff. I knew you were skilled. This knocks my socks.
i like the atv basket!!! digging the DIY
I love all your videos but your build videos are the BEST!!!
Nice.
These past generations stopped getting trade school in junior high, highschool, rop.
Instead the power's that be sold out this nation for a price.
I saw them disassemble, haul off our steel plants. I know you're handy.
Perhaps when we make it through this systems end, you could create cooler stuff.
Everything seems more madmax, and less Renaissance...
Good friend near tempe went to school in Ramona CA.
He loves living in Arizona.
He would love to look for gold.
He's not long for this earth c.
Hope to see you soon.
Love what you do.
Definitely make me chuckle!
I want to see Jeff Williams on The JRE or at least Jamie pull up one of his videos.
Hey Jeff, love the welders cap, but I don't think it beats your Indy-Jones hat! Lol! Nice job on the furnace! 💪⚒️⚖️😂🤠
Cool. And no unfortunate schmelting accident, either.
Nice welds and fabrication skills..
That turned out great. After covid the price of furnaces really went up. Its amazing what you can build with a 30 gallon barrell. I have a old beer keg im going to use after seeing this video. Thanks
Jeff....You know what I'm going to say ...Do ya boy..... Where your safety glasses please.
🇨🇦😎🇨🇦
CGP
That was awesome🔥🔥🔥💯
I built one of those years ago from that video works great I use a Shop-Vac for a blower thanks again Jeff
Remember pinch in the thread metal for gas leaks.
That was the coolest dam video you ever did. Bar none. Omgoodness that was awsome. Im blown away. Ive worked boiler refabs. Ive worked in mills. And 37 years in concrete. Good welding jeff. Everybody welding a 55 gallon drum is like welding to a coke cola can. Pretty hard. And the end. You and slim in the Mojave desert blue oytster cult. Hot rails to hell. Ya going to the lost spanish galleon. Oh ya. I bet slim knows right were its burdied in the sand. Yehaa. Heckuva video. ❤❤❤❤❤
Luckygen uses just a pipe of gas into shop vac blower pipe . Keeps it real simple with less parts and work to do.
What a Smart Fella you are Brother..!
I know Slim would have had some input on the design…!
Go all the way on
Route 66 and have a great time with your mate Slim..
Say hi to Lila and the gang Brother.
Cheers Famo59 👍⛏️🍻
That's pretty good Welding Jeff
thanks
You Rock Jeff!!’
Built a burner like this for my forge, gonna add forced air for forge welding though, this was a good video.
its like great minds think a like or something!
I was just starting the prep work to build my own furnace and have been looking at designs.
Well of course im using Jeff's! Great timing!
keep us posted on your build
Great video
Woooooo Hoooooooo !
Hello from Maine Jeff
Love your vid-yahs
thanks
Great project !!!
Simply Badass Jeff 💪👀🤙
Now that is AWESOME 👍
thanks , really appreciate that
I loved my home made blast furnace. I could get it hot enough to smelt pig iron from bog iron. My refractory was rated to 3000 F.
Ended up tearing it down last year because it scared my neighbors a bit (when I started to experiment with using hybrid propane/diesel as fuel). Sounded like a jet engine when running at full blast.
I bet that was a lot of fun
@@Askjeffwilliams You know it! If you think propane gets hot, try building a hybrid propane/diesel. OMG! It's terrifying... in the best possible way.
Definitely saved a few bucks; it's ridiculous what some people are charging these days.
5:15 hey it’s dad!!!
you know it
Jeff, another great video of course. That there looks too much like work. I know an easier way... send it to you and let you do all the work... Lol looking forward to another great year of education from the best... Say hey to Mrs Jeff and Slim
Just finished smelting and cupelling the concentrates from the 26.5 pounds of "run of the mine" ore from MBMM. Final result [drumroll please] a whopping 0.095 grams. 😂😂😂
You are so talented, sir. I like it.
Thank you so much 😀
Nice work Jeff!
Thanks!
Some great skills there mate 👏
Thanks 👍
Hey Slim 💀Hey Jeff 🤠
Hang on tight Slim! :O
Good job
You forgot to give the ratios of Perlite, refractory, cement, and water. Good to see Slim getting some fresh air. I made a flat bed for my RZR. Much more capacity than the plastic crap bed. How long ago was this video made, or did you just get a face lift? Looking good, you seem to get younger every passing year.
Slim is still hanging around
When you Work Them Fingers to the Bone What do you Get Huh!!! Great Song 🎵 Some How Slim is Enjoying Getting Out that Out House!!!
Thanks again
Always welcome
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
good morning Vietnam ...oohhh I mean SWM
@@Askjeffwilliams lol 😆
Yeah boi!
So come on Let's GO prospecting on MARS
Too cool
We are always making something lol
Perfect example of American ingenuity and exceptionalism AMERITOCROCY
I might build one to cook steaks in 15 seconds
Now this is cool. I am digging the idea of melting some gold in the back yard. 1 question...is the .040 orifice correct for LP gas or Natural gas? LP orifices are always smaller for LP than natural gas. This helps atomize the fuel.
should work
Back in the day I saw you put out a video on smelting your own gold to make a button. And I can't remember the yield. I've got some small gold I'd like to mak into a button and I was wondering what the yield might be of a troy ounce. It's mostly small placer gold that's pretty clean looking and some of it tested out 18 plus carat.
Boy have perlite and vermiculite prices gone through the roof these days!
Harbor freight and others have a "weed" burner fired by propane. It has quite a blast. I melted some Zinc with it no problem and It would surely melt lead. It would be more probable prospecting. Could it melt samples?
Perhaps I can save some money and stop buying Devil Forge furnaces. 🤔 there's a thought I can repair the old one I have just the way you made the new one. Thanks Jeff 👍
What's wrong boy lost your tongue 😂😂
I always wondered if Jeff Williams is the guitar wizard in his back ground music? Shredding!!! Is that you JW?
hahhahahahaa love my Ibenez
@@Askjeffwilliams I knew it! It is you lol I could tell by your style and any one that can literally run around in the desert with a buckskin
Coat on can play those monster riffs behind his back too,. Love Man
make slim great again
I didn’t see any yellow teflon tape in your construction Sonny Jeff 😂
haahhaah I know...right
Looks like one heck of a pizza oven 😂
Great info!
How old is this video Jeff?
One thing I can’t figure out… what happens to the incoming flame pipe when you packed the cement in? From the video it seems like you just put the cement on top and packed it in right on top and around it. That can’t be right, correct?
there is an opening there
What the….. that looked like a lot of work but a sweet furnace how come I’ve never seen you use it recently? To much gas to run it?? Or did the cement wear out after years of use? Slim looked great there thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼
it was a lot of fun to build ... we upgraded ......yes he did huh
Jeff,
No NG here, need to use LP. So what size hole for the orifice in the brass tube, being the LP runs at higher pressure? Or would you just use the valve to throttle it back?
meant to say LP
And ya .... yur gunna catch fire.
Can you use a stick welder to build a furnace
yes
Hey Jeff , i just spotted a young you in the Caspersight yt video named " the secret to uap alien tech " ! And now i wanna know more : D
timer is at 5minutes 15 sec on that video *
could speak volumes on this subject ...... had two friends deep in the field of back engineering.
@@Askjeffwilliamsif you talk about this subject somewhere else , please let me know 🙏 ik it doesn't really have a place on this channel but we never know !
Vintage ... b roll
Sweet, I am also a new patron @ JamesSandzik Let's Go!
