Furnace Build

[RobWilson]

Then the blast pipe was made and fitted to the barrel .




Now we need a centre form .



With that done its time to pore the refractory the bottom was pored to about 4" thick ,( remembering to blank off the blast pipe )and aloud to go green .

The centre then fitted .

and the wall rammed up .

much of the same for the lid , the lid was sealed to the sheet on metal with silicon ,stops it moving about and is easy to peal off later



Centre removed .



With the lid fitted , the tie rods were adjusted so that when the lever is pulled down the lid lifts level .
