I have an oil burner but never used it, it's from an old boiler. For ally though gas is more than enough and far easier to setup. If your in it for the challenge though, making an oil burner would be interesting.

I have an oil burner but never used it, it's from an old boiler.I had a burner from an old central heating system, but found it unsuitable for use in a furnace, as it was designed to heat a bigger area and the confined space of a furnace just choked it.

Can you use a 9kg gas bottle gas forge and turn it upright to melt Alu for casting?
