Making Electric Aluminum Foundry DIY
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 май 2019
- I decided to make an electric furnace because it's totally silent, I may use it inside my workshop, I also may control temperature and I don't have to worry about lack of gas or wood coal.
The furnace works perfectly, after an hour of preheating the temperature is ready to melt aluminium. I didn't test it to maximum temperature because 800 degrees of Celsius is sufficient.
An external case is a bit warm but it doesn't pose a problem in using it. I heat workshop in winter so I won't have problem with it :)
I am going to use this furnace mostly to cast aluminium, later I am going to use it on lathe.
Things I used:
REX-C100FK02-V*AN AC 230V
TEMPERATURE SENSOR TYPE K 0 ° C .. 800 ° C
Fotek SSR-25DA SSR-25 DA Solid State Relay 25A
19 Insulating FireBrick J23
Some tools I use in my constructions:
Self made:
Belt grinder 2x48 - • DIY Belt Grinder 2x48"...
Vise - • Super Strong Hydraulic...
Drill press STAND with COOLANT SYSTEM - • Drill press STAND with...
and
Welder IDEAL Tecnomig 200GD
LATHE Cormak 330x770
Band saw Stiler BS 712R
Drill press ZX7016
Chop saw Evolution RAGE 3

I admire the way you built your project. You make it in such a way that the average person can learn from you!
You are clearly a man that takes pride in his workmanship and ability. Nice job.
Years ago, I worked for a company building High temp (5,432° C) furnaces. May I suggest instead of troweling the cement, add enough water that it can be "painted on with a brush(skim coat)". We would dip both faces of the joint. This will reduce the amount of cement used and after firing, the gap is almost invisible and less susceptible to cracking or leaking. Once the interior is ready for the electrical elements, skim coat the interior walls and floor. The skim coat should be thin enough to pour. Experiment it, if too thin, add more cement powder. GREAT VIDEO!!
I've been researching ideas and plans for a heat treat oven. The use of electric oven burners gave me the simplest and fastest way to make one.
Made in Poland is great. I always learn something. Thank you for the video. Regards from Germany.
Niesamowite, jakość wykonania, dbałość o szczegóły i sam pomysł MEGA. 👍👏👍👏👏
Dokładnie tak
dbałość o szczegóły?
to czemu na niektórych bloczkach "23" do gory nogami? 🤔
nie moge na to patrzeć 🥺😰
The moment you cut a square hole with that round grinder is EPIC.
Bardzo dawno nie oglądałem Twoich filmów. Pamiętam jednak te sprzed lat. Muszę przyznać że widać ogromny postęp w czasie! Doceniam szczególnie zwracanie uwagi na drobne detale. Super! Im dalej tym lepiej!
Восхитительное видео! Грамотно и со вкусом! Благодарю за работу и вдохновение!
Well there are many great things built in Poland, Your furnace is another to add to the list. Enjoyed your video, many thanks
This foundry is beautiful, the care put into making it is amazing.
Man I love seeing people build stuff! I have a similar lathe and I dream of smelting all my beer cans into billets to make stuff! Thanks for posting this!
this dangles around perfect cure and posion for my ocd, its so satisfying and painful to watch at the same time
I scrapped out a stove like this one and head this in mind to make, Then I run across this video, AWESOME! Now I know how! Thank you for sharing this! I subscribed!
Please wear appropriate protective gear when cutting high silica high-risk fire bricks. An N95 face mask and goggles at a minimum. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicosis
Dude, you make me want to go and weld something!............nice job.
Every time I think this guy is done, he adds another feature.
Even put a gauge on his hydra-vise?? I must of missed that video! Cool
You amaze me every time I watch one of your videos.👍👍👍👍👍
Рукастый ты парень! Благодарность за серию. Однозначно - подписка! Привет из Красноярска !!!
Oglądanie rzemieślnika przy pracy to prawdziwa przyjemność. Dziękuję Ci.
Не устаю удивляться этому мужику! Прям гений какой то!)))
that was beautiful to watch, you are very skilled and hardworking
Nice job! You could also drill tiny holes in the edges of front plate for controller. This would make easier the way to cut out.
You sir are truly a Master Craftsman!
Outstanding work!
I really enjoyed watching in fine detail.! Well done with a big thumbs up, and a thank you for sharing on RUclips.!
that was incredibly satisfying to watch!
Ale czad! Grande szacun- jestem oczarowany, ogląda się tak dobrze jak najlepsze filmy, wciąga na maxa. Efekt końcowy wymiata. Zmotywowałeś mnie do roboty. Idę do warsztatu!
Ништяк, браток! Получил огромное удовольствие от процесса постройки, руки у тебя золотые!
A really nice build, a great combination of precision and freehand skills. Thanks for sharing.
11:30 that control box is meant to withstand - atom bombs, emp's fall from 10 kilometers hight, being submerged 10 km under the surface of the sea. impressive.
lol Exactly what I was thinking. I guess easier and faster then messing with sheet metal.
...and a direct hit from a tank projectile...
@@gary851 lol
What are you talking about.They baby is going to fail quite quickly. 12:42 do you see those ventilation slots in the controller. Did you see any made in that steel box? Did you notice he but that 25amp max relay in that unventilated box with the controller?
@@johnnywalker2947 , did you notice that the SSR has the entire box as a heat sink? Have you ever seen one of those controllers in use? I've not only seen many in use in much more confined spaces but have also installed quite a few in confined and un-ventilated boxes through the years and I've yet to see one fail because of it.
Besides that, we were talking about the box, not the contents and the reference made to the box was in reference to the mechanical strength.
Outstanding work I salute you keep it coming
This is a great design. Love your bandsaw setup! I don't think I've seen a nicer vice/pivot setup on a bandsaw before. Also excellent techniques on working with those fire bricks. I'm taking notes on the various ways you were cutting and shaping them.
Thank you for sharing your idea. This goes to the few selected videos that are stored, in addition to liked 👍👍
Very smart, great idea, enjoyed your video of the project
Warning: The Dust those bricks give off is really nasty, wear PPE (IE respirators or atleast a n95)
Yeah, just looking at the video of all that dust gave me lung cancer.
What about Aluminium fumes?
@@DamithaNadeeshaWanniarachchi don’t worry about it to much but wear one anyway because stuff in aluminum from not being pure can be semi toxic
5 minutes
U can replace firebrick with bread
BEAUTIFUL WORK.RESPECT from the UK!
Brak mi słów.!!!Fantastyczny projekt i bezkompromisowe wykonanie..Rodak potrafi..Pozadrawiam
Idk why its in my suggested videos and why did I watched it but have my subscribe and like that was impressive
Fantastic work, dude. Really well done!!! 😃
I just stumbled onto this channel. What a gem - so many ideas and skills demonstrated without one spoken word. Very impressive. Quickly subscribed.
What a quality foundry. Well done!!
Świetny pomysł, oraz wykonanie jak zawsze na wysokim poziomie 😀 Pozdrawiam 😀
I'm impressed! Very cool! Great workmanship. Makes me want to go scrapping for aluminum. Definitely a project I'd like to build. Only if I had the time.
Yeah the 'time'. . . . . . right. :-)
man i'm speechless: you are the best!
Not only fire bricks are expensive, to think you'd have to cut so much of it inorder to make this is really a mouth opener
NICE!!! well planned project... excellent craftsmanship and assembly using quality materials...
Fajnie się rozwinął Twój kanał odkąd bylem tu pierwszy raz, gratuluję i subskrybuję :)
Super robota! Niesamowite pomysły u wykonanie. Z moim warsztatem nie byłoby tak szybko stworzyć coś takiego. 💪
I was stressed out before watching this.... now I'm all relaxed. Very soothing.
Hi from Ukraine, and thanks for the very good idea! It's amazing! Temperature control, powered by electricity, and so small and portable. I will make this for my mini home workshop. Thanks again and good luck in your workshop.

I like that you use simple things and often things that other people throw away! Kind of recycling
Is called upcycling :)
one mans trash is another mans treasure
That was a very impressive build. Excellent job!
Really nice production. I feel like I could build one from watching the video. Great Job!
such an expert worker! a pleasure watchig this
Great job. I like watching people manufacturing things
Wow, incredible workmanship
Зрелище чужого труда завораживает...
Wow... the best fabrication skills
Your oven is quality workmanship! Before my father died my parents used to run an engineering business , They did non ferrous casting. Aluminium, zinc , bronze\brass and the furnaces looked almost the same, circular with insulation brick walls but on a much larger scale. They didn't use electric just coke(coal), a giant blower fan and a crucible made of silicone, Graphite or steel for Zinc. It was fucking noisy and dirty. So electric is much safer because coal produces loads of unhealthy fumes & carbon monoxide.
@Ognjen Radojevic Tradition =/= better, this is why we need newer technology.
Depending on your state, it can be likely you get your electricity from coal being burned.
Pretty Goddam nifty,except now I know where my tent poles went!Love the ladle and the cradle you made for it to set in the furnace,smart!
the video I was searching for 2 years, thank you
amazing work, you have great skills. congrats
You are a genius, finally the youtube algorithm works.
Cleaver, simple, solid, an nicely executed.
Really enjoyed your video, thank you. You are very skilled.
Zajebista robota 😁 wow zresztą jak każdy twój projekt szacunek pozdrawiam
Jest i piecyk :) Polak potrafi
Pozdrowiam 😉
My man, you have got some awesome skills. Love all the projects you do.
Nice idea using the hob elements. They look like the perfect shape/size
Awesome build, my big metal melting furnace is still charcoal powered, I got a small electric one, I want to bluid a big electric one like yours, you got yourself a new subscriber!!!
Отличное исполнение и нужная вещь. Респект!
You are an Artist. Beautiful.
💯👍 pure GENIOUS. Absolutely awesome.
Cieszę się, że są prawdziwe mechaniki! Zawsze z Tobą Białoruś!
It´s very cool, you´re a genius!
The work of a truly craft master
Brilliant build and design
норм печка.мне-бы такую.но заморачиваться не охота.мужик молодец.респект
если хуйней не страдать и не ебаться снимать фаски, а просто сложить куб и обварить полосой блять хотя бы немного тоньше танковой брони - то хуйня, делов на вечер, два, под пивчанский
Nice job dude!
Thanks!! :)
Yeah Dude nice Job!
Love the fact you are using a temperature controller WITH an Solid State Relay (SSR).
I do control systems for a living and I see way too many people use relays and contactors and SSR outperform them by so far its not worth the discussion.
1 Thing - SSRs do like to be mounted on a heat sink. Your getting away with it because its mounted on a heavy (by control cabinet standards) steel plate, which gives it at least some heat sinking. I personally don't like cramming any electronics into tiny small boxes. I know Mechanical people want all electrical boxes to be as small as possible, but its never wise with devices that like ventilation and unless you know its built for it you should treat all electrical devices as if they want ventilation. Look at the top & bottom of the temperature controller - those slots are there for a reason. Even the lowest powered electrical components generate heat.
Overall your mechanical build is excellent and for all that I have seen this past year its easily the best home made furnace. Its not any one thing its all the little things From how you made the bricks fit, to the support frame and the castors. Overall it deserves way more than the 1 thumb I can give it.
From Australia 👍👍👍👍👍 & 🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
@@MadeinPolandChannel Здравствуй, што за значек 12 у тебя в названии канала?
@@MadeinPolandChannel Did you ever regret breathing in all that dust?
your skills are impresive
You are an artist! Very well done.
I may have said this here before but it bears repeating.....you are going to be worth your weight in gold during the apocalypse
I plan to avoid the apocalypse by being in the rapture!
Gold won’t be worth anything during the apocalypse.
@@ArnaudMEURET not about the gold, it's about the skills. Please try to keep up. If you paid attention at all you would know he can make just about anything.
@@ArnaudMEURET Yes, food will be more costly than gold. I have invested in a lot of brass and lead.
Unless the apocalypse comes from alumina dust inhalation, in which case he'll be one of the first to go.
Великолепно! Автору респект!
Brilliant. Very fine work.
Muy buen trabajo, PROFESIONAL!!!
Мастер! Смотришь видео, и хочется повторить!
Very, very impressive
You've used some sophisticated machine shop tools but it obvious that basic hand tools, for example a cheap grinder and stick welder, will do the same job albeit slower.
Your channel is (arguably) one of the top 10 "make-it' channels on RUclips because it features very useful projects, uses re-purposed parts or sheet metal to reduce costs, has clear instructions and is well filmed
Many thanks for your terrific content!
This is the best thing I’ve seen the entire time I’ve known RUclips. Awesome!
Waouh! I was watching your video with love! You work like a Cook prepare his cake! You are really an incredible perfectionist worker! Thanks for the good moment
Как всегда ЛАЙКОС от САНТЕХНИКА 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I subscribed when you had around 400 subcribers. Now its 400.000. Nice work, keep it up!
oh and dont inhale the aluminium vapor, not very healthy
Amazing work almost over-engineered but my god you did not cut any corners. I am so Impressed...
Performing work to fit the parts of the furnace without a respirator surprised me. And so the execution is very high quality and well thought out.
Why do I find this therapeutic watching this? I'm never going to have the skill nor the tools to build one.
Ha! Every time I see someone break out a welder I think to myself, "Oh, no."
Genghis Kong because when you watch a master craftsmen/ craftwoman just being allowed to watch them work is payment enough for your time
Max Johnson that makes absolutely no fucking sense! To the point to where that’s even a non-statement
because it's inventive and great craftsmanship
@@an_what It made sense to me...
Never thought I'd be happy my oven is broke.
This is definitely getting done in the next month.
Jestem Pan Czepialski - byle by się doczepić ale tutaj jestem pod wrażeniem. Super pomysł, a że sam dużo aluminium toczę to i z pewnością pomysł skopiuję. Rewelacja. Gratuluję.
Great work. I will be making one of these soon
Awesome work bro👍we look forward to more videos...
Awesome job. You’re smart and creative. Well done.
Aaaaaaaaaah, It's a thing of beauty...! Great job..! Makes me jealous...!
it's avesome! man, you have golden hands!
