Your channel is easily my most favorite channel on youtube. Very impressed with all you can do. I'm sure there are plenty of corporations that would love to have you as one of their engineers but if you're anything like me, You'd rather attain as many skills as possible on your own and use them for your own benefit. Great content and great sense of humor as well man.

I know this is old, but in terms of high heat paint, the manifold paint they sell at the auto parts store greatly out performs the bbq high heat paint from the hardware store. Nice build!

Awesome build! I've wanted to build one and will likely steal your method! PS not sure if you did but would make sure the inside of the electronic box is grounded in case a live wire ever makes contact with the case inside, and if there are any sides of the electronic box that aren't welded (just screwed in), would also ground that side as well. Thanks for the vid & liked!

Just be aware that the heating elements are exposed live wires. If you touch them with a conductive crucible like yours (and graphite is also conductive) you might get an unpleasant kiss from some angry pixies. It's safest to turn the power off when handling the crucible.

To get a view down into the crucible without risking expensive cameras, you could probably use a mirror. Holding a hand mirror over the crucible, you could film the reflection and stay clear of the heat. Do you have a lot of interesting skills it’s funny how either of you are to try a project That you just jump in like Robin Hood. With a little swashbuckling, you save the day. Tally-ho! PS, when you burninate, what will you do with those ingots? And how hot can it get? I mean, what can it melt?
There is a different type of brick that's white and very much air filled. I am trying to buy a few at a time, because good lord of darkness they are expensive. But can be cut with a hand saw for wood due to how much more air is between particules if the brick. I first bought some heavy fire bricks like you got, and use them for my oxy ace melting needs lol

I used to work for a contract research company that does R&D for the US military (so, "defense contractor," but with much less money). This level of jank takes me right back. Seriously, we'd spend thousands of dollars to get results this "good." All that matters in the end is that the shit works. And no one ever let me label things with epic memes, at least not outright. I had to write SCADA software and sneak it in: Data Acquisition, Telemetry, And Safety Software (DATASS)

I was surprised you hadn't built an arc furnace for use with your welder, which looks like it has an arc output. Resistance wire by itself is pretty lame for foundry stuff because the metal fumes will generally alloy with the wire (they'll also alloy with your corporeal metals and I wish you would wear gloves while welding). I would take the box and make an arc furnace from it when the elements fail, for example.
