First casting
#19
Ahh spuds- is there anything they can't do??

Hope to have another go at this casting over the next few days, I plan to make a bigger crucible, thinking I might weld together a hexagonal tube out of some flat bar I have left over. Having material at hand is always a problem for me with these projects, i don't have a ready supply of scrap except my own offcuts.

I appreciate the information and everything but I really don't want to start playing with thermocouples if I can avoid it, just one more complicating factor and another thing to learn about. I'm hoping to keep it simple for a while yet.
