The next project with this furnace will be to introduce a decarburizing port into it. I am probably just going to use the Bessemer method and a small inflator pump. this will be part of the crucible housing and once the pump is started, it shouldn't need the arc to stay molten as the air will burn iron and increase the temp of the pot (hopefully), then pour with a slag ladle to keep slag from going into the mold. The end of the decarburizing tube will be a porcelain grill element tube like this:

 

Hello, I apologize for jumping in late, I just discovered this thread and am new to IFI.

I take much inspiration from your project and would like to create something similar. If possible, perhaps a Czochralski growth setup. 
 

I’ll try to do as much I can from the information you provided, but am also curious about seeing your setup in person. My location is in CT

Thanks, Alex
