I build another one a few years back to use as a test rig for a burner idea i had ( idea failed )
The old furnace just uses loose fire brick as a sort of lid and this works fine ,,, this one i had a bit castable left over so i decided to use it upon this build .
And that it ,,,,,,,, at the end of the day all you need is a stack of FIRE bricks and a steel rapper ,, 1/2 a brick will do for a crucible stand if you using gas / oil as a fuel ,,,,,,,,, if your using coke a fire grate is fitted and air is blasted in under the grate .
Any questions fire away :s
