- It was my second attempt at making a heat treat oven, this time I decided to make it more powerful. Used better isolation materials and made thicker heating coils. Results of this combination is that this oven reaches 800°C in less than 7 minutes, for comparison previews one needs for almost 3 hours.
Below I made a material list, let me know in the coment's section if I missed something or if you want some more details in any aspects.
Main material list:
- Aerated concrete 600 kg/m3
- IFB 23 Bricks
- Mortar Silcas M
- Kanthal A1 wire (1,2mm, 10m)
- Thermocouple type k
- Fuse 16A
- Transmit G7
- SSR 25
Performance:
800°C (1472°F) → 6.38 minutes
900°C (1652°F) → 10.10 minutes
1000°C (1832°F) → 15.45 minutes
1100°C (2012°F) → 25.09 minutes

Best DIY video I have seen in a long time , Just GREAT.
One of the best diy videos.
One of the nicest seen on YT. Well done!
Thank You
You do GREAT work young man. Keep it up !!!!!!!
Thanks :)
Glad to see you posting again
Thank You, I wish to have more time creating new videos, also unfortunately these days YT works a little bit against small channels which generally has a demotivating effect.
humanity will be long extinct and this oven will still be around =) great work man
Very nice build and nice welding
Nice build, good vid.
Some serious insulation. Should have no problem re-entering Earth's atmosphere.
Very nice saved for later
Nice work bro . Interesting way to go about it . I like it and will use some of your touches on mine. Only thing I would do different is use a respirator when cutting any of this stuff.
Nice heat treatment oven. We shared this video on our homemade tools forum this week 😎
Thank you :) Every like, subscribe or share motivate me to create new videos.
@@PaveW You're very welcome. Let me know if you want a free premium forum membership, and you can post your videos on our forum anytime you want. We have lots of YTers posting their videos on our board.
Sure why not :)
Dude, respirator it up when grinding that stuff
I was holding my breath while doing it.
Besides, "respirators" have killed many in the past two years… Anyway fair point ;)
@@PaveW yeah I was less than conscious of safety equipment in my earlier days and the old timers don’t make shit up when they warn us. Now in my 40s I’m paying for mistakes. That thing looks awesome though!!!!
Well made Good Job.How far You
Have came I remember Your First knife You Did on the tube . You Have to be proud of Your Self. Folks Also .Good Job 👍.
Thank You :) yeah knife from my first YT video leaves much to be desired. It's good to have this type of documentation, showing off gradual progress during every next project.
@@PaveW
More than progression .its a testimonial of Your existiants.
💗
I really, REALLY like this design. Probably the best DIY heat treating oven I've seen so far. I'm definitely going to build this. About how much did this cost you to make?
Thanks, about $250 in total
@PaveW - Wow! That is quite a fair price for such a beauty 👌 Impressive!
Very nice work, the advertised performance of your oven is impressive.
Can you specify the internal dimensions of the oven as well as the length of resistance used.
Thanks
Used 10m of ⌀1,2mm Kanthal A1 wire, diameters 10x15x40cm.
Hi, great build video. I am using it to guide my current build of an oven. Please could you let me know where I can buy those hinges - can’t find any like them in the UK? Thank you.
Thanks, search them under the name "gate hinges"
🥰👌
This is awnsome this profs u dont have to pay an insane among of Money for the oven thanks so much. Just 1 question. Is there any link or name listet of what the eletrical heater is called ?
Regards.
Thank you, i used Kanthal A1 wire (1,2mm)
Great job!! I watched your previous heat treat oven video afterwards and you made a big step up in manufacturing quality! Could you please describe the updates you've made to achieve the high efficiency/ fast heat up time? And could you please tell more about the power you are using? 10m 1,2mm Kanthal A1, 230V and 4kW will result in a too high surface load of 10,4 W/cm^2. Recommended is a rating of
I used better insulating materials, the total thickness of wall is twice as thick as before, I also used thicker wire to make the heater, which resulted in much better performance. The furnace reaches 800 degrees Celsius in about 15 minutes.
will probably not last long, where did you find those specs?
Hey, is the 16A fuse enough? From what I've read on the package 10m of 1.2 A1 kanthal is 12,3 Ohm. 230V/13,3Ohm = 18,7A
I'm not an electrician though :D
I'm not an electrician as well, but everything is working fine for this time, one thing I had to upgrade was the cooling system of elentrition.
Great video. I'm going to start gathering materials for one. Also, what song is that?
Thank you, it's "Into The Unknown" by Whitesand
I need to build one, is this 220v? What was the connector you used to connect the Kanthal to the electrical wire?
Yes, oven is powered by 230v, I used a standard electrical connector
Nice video, What is the name of the cord to seal the door?
Thanks, thermal insulation rope but I'm not sure if that's the proper terminology.
Great ! how much does it cost? what can we do to heat to 1300°C ?
About 250$. Theoretically it should reach 1300 Celsius degree but I never tried to run that high, usually for hardening steels 800-1100 is enough.
How many millimeters of nichrome wire should be suitable for temperature 1250 degrees
It depends, you should use Kanthal A1 wire or something similar, it heats up to 1400 Celsius, 10m ø 1mm or hier shoud be fine. There are some free calculators you can find online that schoud help you figure it out.
Hi what guage of the heating wire and lenght for 220 volt?
I used Kanthal A1 wire Ø1,2mm, 10m)
Is this running on 110v or 220v?
230v
Is it uses 3 phase electricity?
No, it's standard 230V
@@PaveW thank you for the answer!
I thought it's 3 phase because it heats up really quick.
What are the specs of your electrical system?
what is power rating of this coil?
About 4 kW
Hi if possible and if you have time, I would like to ask you to build me a custom wheat treating oven
What is the name this brick
IFB 23 Bricks
How much this is making at home
All of It ?
