Rob Thats a big wedding ring you have on there , are you going to water cool the tuyere's in the full size they were fitted in a cooler ( water cooled ) and then the tuyere was inserted into that at a down angle of about 20 deg. boy was it a job when the cooler or tuyere failed on the furnaces as they had to be changed hot , they just removed the blast. Build is looking good , but will look evan better with flames out of the top :D you may know this but in an induction furnace the lining was put in dry the base was rammed up to refusal then a steel pre form place in and the gap slowly fill with dry refractory this was rammed with air powered peening hammers held on jig and raised with the crane ,hell of a din but the lining was rock hard, the pre from was melted out as the first charge Stuart |
