Think i might have found something here.

Ah ok. And the refractory mortar is not the same as castable refractory? :-P

Ah ok. And the mortar is useless as liner? Struggling with the castable refractory part. Hard to find apparently. And i have to order kaowool from ebay. I found some mats for mufflers. Can withstand temps up to 1200 degrees celsius. That should work or?

I have a stainless steel pipe thats 17cm diameter. Could that work as the inner layer with kaowool outside it? The can is about 40cm diameter. Its a little bigger than i wanted but the best i could find Would this work? Firebrick in the pipe. Stainless steel pipe. Kaowool. And refractory mortar? Sorry for being the slowest in the world.

Great info! What should i use outside of the wool and refractory to the opening of the forge gets really big if i only use those things. Just gotta find out what castable refractory is in Norwegian. Hah. I thought it was the same as refractory cement. I found refractory mortar. And refractory adhesive. Any good? Green = blanket. Red = castable refractory. What should blue be? :-D im still stupid. Anyone got a picture showing the layers of something similar? I dont want it to explode and kill me. Heh

Wayne?

Thanks for the advice. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rutland-25-lbs-Castable-Refractory-Cement-Tub-601/300981816. Would this work well to make the forge with? Or do i also need the kaowool with it? I have read alot of the stickys. But still confused. Im Norwegian and i dont understand what everything is. Since its called something different in Norwegian :-P

Thanks!

Hello. I am trying to build myself a gas forge. And i have no idea what to use inside it. I have read about using perlite, concrete and sand, and other tings and later on reading somewhere else that thats no good. What do you guys recommend? Preferably something castable.
