A View into Hades

The Flowerpot Furnace was my first smelting furnace. The melt in the furnace above is aluminium destined to become an unfortunate lump of ... aluminium. This was a pretty fun experiment and left me with the desire to melt stuff.

Since the first melt, I have indeed melted other stuff. including some old brass tap-ware. The furnace didn't like being cooled down rapidly in a Tasmanian downpour, however, so I need to repair my furnace.
