I would like more details on how you (for example) mounted the shaft to the bowl, more details on the drive mech., etc. Could you contact me? bjvoor@gmail.com.
I have made made this device for that particular reason. The drive train in this set up can make much larger parabolas than what is seen in this video and their purpose would be for large solar collectors used to superheat water (steam). As far as the molten aluminium goes, the only difference would be the use of something like Plaster of Paris (similar to drywall compound). This material would start as a liquid and solidify into the parabolic shape while being stable under molten aluminium.
Love your low speed centrifudge idea. Have you thought about altering it to make a larger parabola... and adapting it to accept molten aluminum.. to make concentrated solar devices.?? I'd love to try that experiment in the future. md
