So any of you lads ever converted a log firred stove to a kiln or forge? Thanks Bry |
| MrFluffy:
No, but Ive put aluminium scrap as a test in my woodburning stove firebox when it was burning dry oak with a few years age in it and melted the scrap into liquid. It appeared you could just make a crucible holder to hold it all in place and use a normal fire without any conversion. |

Arr oks kool. I know with our log stove it's crazy the heat that can be generated with lumps of timber, I've seen CP 1 or CP 2 titanium glow cherry red. :D |

Stove to furnace ! What a great idea. No need to build a furnace, just do a few 'adaptions' on the pot - belly and away we go. Ally casting ! no problem. Then I remembered that my stove chimney is made from aluminium tube. Need to change that. :doh: Dave. |
