Sketchbook Stuff

Video from my crucible furnace test run.

I made the furnace, crucible tongs (for taking the crucible out of the furnace and putting it in the crucible shank), and the crucible shank (for picking up the crucible and pouring the molten metal.) The furnace is not completely finished yet, but far enough to test out. It worked great! We poured 3 ingots of bronze for the test. You can see the full size video at youtube at this link http://www.youtube.com/user/dfield23
