  • Do you have a vid, to show how you made the foundry? Also what do you use to get the heat up to 1220*C.

    thank-you

  • I do not have a video of the building of the foundry, but I would like to make such a video sometime.

    To heat the material, we burn coal and use a bathroom vent fan or leaf blower to force air (oxygen) into the combustion chamber.

  • so would that be considered ,999% copper? how do you remove any contaminants?

  • No. I don't remove any contaminates. I add contaminates because the crucible is open-top. It's filthy.
