the burner is the same one as in the link and instead of the castable refractory i use the ceramic lining or kaowool, and a coating of fire cement clay you buy in stores. it a very simple setup, i will try to get pics up when i find a camera to use.

id have to disagree on that notion that a sword can;t cut rocks. i have a sword in my possesion that Can in fact cut stone. and i mean stone, like the big one you find in a field or soemthing, the blade of this sword however, is however not a conventional sword blade, the blade is made out of a high carbon industral chipper blade that is 40inchs in length, i just ground a groove and welded a very strudy handle onto it, it will cut a stone. or more precise, blast it into a thousand piece when it hit, and no damaga to the blade, i will try to upload photos ASAP. the only thing that is almost harder then diamond is this sword. and it will take alot of punishment. ive tried it on bushes rock , coconuts, cars and all that the object im hitting is in worse shape then the sword is by far.

hello, im new to this forum but i have been a major hobbiest with blacksmithing, when i get time fromn work, well i usually use coal or charcoal, then i tried propane, propane was awsome but expensive. so i was looking around a saw this link Waste-Oil Forge and Foundry so i decide to give it a try, i had a reil burner that i made and turfed it. then made this one, gave it a test fire and man was i surprized. it actually worked, and it worked good, it is so stupidly simple and it cost me like $20 canadian to make it. i used black iron of course. rigged up a blower from a old vacuum like this guy did, a voola. this idea is awsome, it works as a forge burner, and it works good. or course i have a more fitting forge casing, a old air peg tank, with a 2inch thick layer of ceramic durablanket, i bought two rolls off ebay that were 1/4 inch thick, each roll was 12'' by 24'' by 25 feet. so 50 feet of this stuff for a grand total off 120 dollar booyah, well instead of plistix or stuff like that i went cheap, i used the fire cement clay, it works real good, look cruddy but it work awsome, and it alot cheap to repair. well in general, i love the waste oild burner and i plan on using it for a long time, i spend 6mins to get it up to running temp and a forge for hours. and it helps i have over 80gallons of used motor oil that i filter before burning it. i have no problem with smoke or fumes, butt i run a ventalation fan anyways, well thought id just tell you about this link. You GOT to check it out.
