Pyrometer with Dip probe.

Moleburr - Wednesday, January 18, 2012 - 4:46am

I'm new to this so please be patient with me. I hope to cast Aluminium and Bronze.
I'm looking for a guide on how to build a 'pyrometer' with a 'Dip probe'. I've found a list of bits I think I'll
need off 'ebay'. Are there any guides or plans out there. I've got a tight budget, dont really want to buy one of the shelf.

Hi there,
I'm davide, a wannabe metalsmith from Italy; I came to the metalworking passion a little late in my life - in my thirties - and I'm struggling to change that something in my life, and shift to a goldsmith/craftsman job: one day, maybe...

CuSn8, CuSn10, CuSn20 bronze sheet suppliers (preferably 24"X24" sheets)

arielcee - Saturday, July 16, 2011 - 1:39pm

I am looking for any suppliers who have 24" X 24" 1-2 mm thick sheets of cusn8, cusn10, cusn20, or any of the in between, phosphor bronze. I am a aspiring cymbal smith and, aside from ordering B20-cusn20 blanks from turkey, I haven't been able to come across any sort of sheets of these alloys. I have tried National Bronze Metals, but to no avail. Any suggestions or recommendations would be much appreciated.

Portable foundry furnace

Fully portable bronze furnace.
Smallest gas powered leaf blower I could find - plenty of air at idle.
Stainless cover with refractory slathered kaowool weighs less than 20 lbs.
harbor freight weed burners are way simpler than making your own.
