Hi.

Great video.

How much compressed air does that nozzle use? Do you have to have a big compressor for it?

Also why are you using a pressure regulator for the air? Is it not the flow that you want to regulate? And that can be done with a simple needle valve.

Hello, TheMrTinker, I need some parts of this burner. Can you send it to me?

use a 220v light dimmer for the blower to control the speed.

Thank you for sharing! Hoping to build similar!

@EllinonEnosis Blocking the intake takes some load off the motor: pressure inside the turbine drops so air gets less dense, revs go up; it would overheat if the same airflow would be used to cool the motor though.

Ok. So that answers my question of buying the expensive stuff rather than making it myself and having it crack. ( the cheapest refractory in my area is 60usd for a 50lb bag and for that I can buy the recipe mix for 30usd and have close to 150lb of mix. Of course like I've always said if your gonna do it, do it right the first time.

Also would you recommend 3000°f+ mix. Because that's all I can get.
