What if I insulated the inside of it with some plaster of Paris and sand mixture? I would reduce the size of the fire pot, but would it help with longetivity?

Hello guys,
I am new to this whole thing and wanted to start by welding my own forge together. I have bought 5mm thick steel to make my firepot out of and after my initial research, that seemed to be fine, but after stumbling across more videos (which all appeared after I ordered, of course) I am not so sure about it.
What do you guys think?
Best wishes!
How thick should my fire pot be?

Thank you guys for all the answers, I got the plaster idea off Youtube where people built a forge out of a BBQ Grill I didn't want to start out all expensive but after reading what you guys have replied here I did order 10mm thick steel to make my firepot from, I'm not going to touch any plaster or sand!
Thank you all, I might post a picture of my forge on here once I'm done Have a good one guys!
