    Default burner help

    In the morning I am purchasing the last bits for making my furnace but will need to find some place that has info on making the lpg burner. I will be melting aluminium so would like a natural aspirated burner. Any sites would be appreciated as when I google I get too many hits and would prefer links that you people like

    Default The site ive been on lately

    Burner engineering

    why propane ? its always hard to use up a bottle , and if you pull too much gas out too fast , they freeze over ?

    Diesel burner

    Thanks for that Mr Sniffer It would have taken me days or weeks to find that site. I'm starting with the furnace shown in this site and if I like what I do with it I may look at other metals for melting. For now small steps to get the experience.

    Good forum that. Lots of good info. I had a look at your post on your furnace Sawdust, looks like you are getting it working well.
