Mike,

Here's an excellent source for supplies, including the refractory cement you need by mail! It's Budget Casting Supplies (BCS) at: http://budgetcastingsupply.com/index.htm

Also try:

Farwest Materials: http://www.farwestmaterials.com/

Art Casting Journal: http://www.artcastingjournal.com/

Also, check out Dave Gingery's book on Building a Gas Powered Furnace at Lindsay Books: http://www.lindsaybks.com/

There are also a lot of sites that deal with building gas furnaces, but I have found them to be lacking in detail and specifics. However, people seem to like the Ron Reil Burner for use in a furnace. You can visit his web page at:

http://www.webpak.net/~rreil/design.html

Hope this helps some.

Dave
