Sound.

But say you've melted a few things, then what. Do you have some moulds to shape the melted metal into vases or even to make replica spoilers for scooby?

eBay yes, but have been looking for this particular bad boy furnace for a good while. It's massive overkill but I'd rather turn it down than not be able to turn it up.

Did it come wih tongs, gloves, aprons and protective face mask? Your also going to need casting sand and a ladle. Or you could just fill it with peanut oil and fry a turkey.

A year later we did our first woodcasting. Not bad for a first attempt. That's me wearing shorts, safety first.

That's a few holes in an inch thick slab of ash, we poured from the other side. Next up we go bigger, making a 10ft slab with holes in into a feature, an expensive feature.
