First two pieces of iron....

I think i'm going to have a go at making a Kwikie burner, after all i've got 600 (yes 600) gallons of used oil to dispose off so expect many questions !

I used to sprinkle something on the plinth brick to stop it sticking to the crucible but for the life of me I cannot remember what. Can't have been sand as that would fuse at those temperatures
NeoTech:
Would be awsome to see a cross cut or a surface cut out of that square block.
mattinker:
A piece of card board or thick paper will leave carbon to separate the crucible from the plinth.
