home made foundry test.

Melting aluminum cans for now.

Not sure what I am going to make first perhaps a halo helmet that would be cool.

hi to all, it will be nice if someone help me about cement, do I need to just fill up by normal cement can cover it by fire cement? or I should fill all by fire cement ? Thanks

In this I used regular cement mixed with plaster of Paris. You can use perlite from what I have read but I was unable to obtain it. After letting it cure I then coated the cement with a layer of fire cement found in the plumbing section of most hard ware stores. Just be sure to let each step cure and slowly heat them.

Yes that would work better but they are hard to find for me at least so I have been working on making a new and bigger furnace!
