Need info - oldskoolron - 08-15-2016
Ive been building a small furnace for heating up small bits metal plus tempering .im all good with the lil one but my big one im stuck with few things
When i get the torch going an put it into the pipe to heat up inside if once its going full bore i Put a firebrick on the top feed hole an the flame goes out
ive added more air holes in the air feed funnelan it still goes out .its my understanding that to get it to melting temp inside shouldnt you have no openings like in my old powdercoating over
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers

are you closing the top of the furnace completely off, if so your choking your burner off so that the exhaust gasses can't escape. also do you have a photo of the burner in question.
