Hey everyone,
We are back with the second part of our video of the Castmaster CMF 1000 Forge Single Burner. We told our viewers about a year ago to stay tuned for the video of the application of the Mr. Volcano rigidizer and satanite application on the kaowool. We got busy with our knives and did not get the video uploaded for you. And today a viewer requested that video! So, we finally got it out! Let’s get into it!
First we will prepare the rigidizer which helps harden the kaowool ceramic blanket to get it ready for the satanite covering. The rigidizer comes in a 16oz. bottle by Mr. Volcano and can be found on Amazon. Next, we will apply the satanite which can also be found on Amazon. The satanite will cover the kaowool and make the castmaster forge last longer and keep you safer when you are forging.
SPECIAL NOTE: In the directions for the rigidizer there is a choice to choose Step A or Step B. In Step A the rigidizer gets dried for the 24 to 48 hours. But, we chose Step B (shown in the video) where you could dry the rigidizer by lighting up the burner. We have seen other videos where they chose Step A and waited the 24 hours. Thanks for watching!

You did an outstanding job with your video and narration, Although I don’t think I would have applied the retardant mortar on the brick just because of over time of having to replace it because they do become brittle over time and I have had to get new ones, just my two cents but the mortar may keep this from happening perhaps. But none the less outstanding job and a credit to the hobby no doubt.
We appreciate your comment! That is a good point! Also thanks for watching our video!
Thank you, a lot of useful information.
Glad to help! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the great informative video.
Thanks for watching! We're glad it was helpful! We appreciate your comment!
I am about to do this to the same forge. Great video. Any reason you coated the firebrick in satanite instead of leaving it easily replaceable?
Coating the firebrick was just a choice at the time because we thought we would get longer life out of the brick. But leaving the brick easily replaceable would be a good option. We hope that helps. 😀Thanks for your question and thanks for watching our video.
I like it that you took the time and effort to ridgidize and coated with satanite can you tell me the measurements of the forge? Width length and circumference?
The width is 9 inches, the length is 10 inches and the circumference is about 25.75 inches! We hope that helps! Thanks for watching!
How many pounds of satanizer did you buy for your forge. I liked your results. I just picked up a Vevor two burner forge and going to start the process. I have the hardenizer but not the satanite. Thanks for the video.
We purchased 4.5 pounds of satanite and used about 4 pounds of satanite! Hope that helps. Thanks for watching our video and we appreciate your comment!
I would of put the whole bottle in and then filled the bottle up and put it in since it says 50/50 easy peasy
Thanks for a great idea! and thanks for watching!
I wish I saw this sooner I already applied the satanite but no video before yours spoke about a rigidizer so I never used any. Do you think it would be alright if I did not use rigidizer?
Hey Arkon. With what i saw/heard, rigidizer isn't needed when you apply satanite onto to the kaowool to protect it, all it does in that process is to make it easier to apply the satanite because the kaowool will be sturdy. If you would build a forge without any refractory tho, the rigidizer is needed to protect the Kaowool from mechanical wear and more importantly protect your lungs from loose flying Kaowool particals getting pushed out of the forge by movement and airflow.
Cheers and Happy Forging
@@-MissNox- Thanks! I supposed that was the case but figured I should ask.

Hello Arkon, The rigidizer makes the Kaowool firm which gives the satanite a stable platform to bond to. As the satanite breaks down during use, the rigidizer also ensures that the kaowool particles are not airborne possibly getting into your respiratory system. Eventually the satanite will need to be replaced. We have used ours for over a year now and the satanite is starting to crack and will need to be re-applied. We appreciate your question and especially thanks for watching our video!😀
I thought you were supposed to let the kaowool dry for 24-48hrs
In the directions for the rigidizer there is a choice to choose Step A or Step B. In Step A the rigidizer gets dried for the 24 to 48 hours. But we chose Step B (shown in the video) where you could dry the rigidizer by lighting up the burner. We have seen other videos where they chose Step A and waited the 24 hours. Hope that helps! Thanks for your 😀comment and thanks for watching!
