Hey Gentlemen, thanks for the replies.
Hans, you share a name with my father! Thanks for giving wisdom just like him
Thanks for sharing those beautiful images of your rig, and the for the safety warnings -- good call.
Do you have any suggestion what configuration I might consider with about 50-60 k 23 bricks?
Would it be a good idea to try and emulate something like yours, or is there a different design you would try if you started from scratch?
I'd love to do massive pours (I'm an artist interested in sculpture), but I'll be working in my backyard, generally alone, so large crucibles will probably be a bit out of the question.
