Nelyrho Propane Smelting Furnace Kit with 7kg Crucible, Support Stand, Tongs etc.，Full Stainless Steel Made, at Home Foundry Melting Aluminum Gold Silver Copper Scrap Metal Recycle

I got this as a birthday gift for my husband last year. It was easy to use, a good size for small batches, and a good price for the quality. He loved it and still uses it often to melt down copper scraps, aluminum cans, and brass I think. Mostly making coins and bars.

I've done a few melts. It worked out amazing. Its just a little tiny but it does help keep it hot. I placed satanite on the walls so the insulation doesn't burn away. It gets very hot, use proper care, just having your hand above the lidless furnace can burn you.

Set up was simple, it works relatively well and fast.I'm going to cast all the things! Just don't rely on the tongs that it comes with to grip the crucible or you'll eventually spill all over... ask me how I know..

Got so much joy out of this so far! Good entry-level metal working with the kids.

Make sure to dry your crucibles in the over before placing in the furnace. If the crucibles are not completely dry the rapid heating will cause them to shatter or explode.

Just what was expected and when I expected.

Love it. Works well.

Please do not use the adapter for the tank level gauge. This will not function and the tube will get very hot preventing proper gas into the oven. Use a weigh scale to read the tank. Working perfectly without the adapter. Melting a lot of aluminum cans.
