home made Electric foundry for Aluminium

It is my second edition of homemade electric foundry for aluminium. This foundry has 2000 Watt electric power and need electric temperature regulation. I do not regulate electric power and teater was overheated :( Do not let heater's temperature increase more, then 800 C.

@justmekkb Hi! "loose your finger prints " great deal !!!!! :))

Two questions: 1) would ground up soda cans work as the scrap? 2) what happens when you let the temp rise higher than 800 C?

[ivanov3000mltk]

@Emaniac69 Hi! 1) As I know, thin pieses of scrap (and cans too) is not very sutable raw produce due to oxygenated layer over Al. Bulk pieses is better.

2) heater was burned. See explanation below video and answers to comments.
