      Hey man, great fan of these foundry/oven videos you have done and am considering creating one myself.
      Am I right in saying the heating element works via induction?
      Also could a similar setup reach a temperature that could melt copper or even steel as well as heat steel to a temperature that would be soft enough for forging?
      I would very much appreciate a response if you could spare the time and I hope you go on to do great things.

    I saw someone else using some metal shower hose to make the wires look a bit more 'professional' and I figured you might want to know about it for future projects. The metal is really flexible, but obviously still metal so it would help the wires not get damaged. And the plus side it is cheap!

    Could I recommend that you use a rubber or insulating grommet around the cable exit hole on the back of the electronics enclosure.... to reduce the risk of cable chafing / shorting against the metal plate. I llke the design, and the explanations are very helpful. I'm going to guild one!. I know this is 3 years old, but worth mentioning. Thanks for the videos.

    @EagleKeeper86 Před 4 lety +1

    Congrats on the build man! I intend to build this very same design for annealing glasswork. One helpful tip though, although your intentions were good with the cable strain relief inside the box with the bolts. You should really install a legit strain relief in the back of the box where the wires enter the box. The purpose of a strain relief is not only to prevent the wires from being pulled out, but also from chaffing on the enclosure where they enter. It wouldn’t take long for that metal to wear through the wire insulation. With that much current going through those wires it’s a definite must have! Great job on the build man! You’ve earned a sub.

    • @gregraynard781
      @gregraynard781 Před 4 lety

      The metal clamping is good, a vinyl or silicon grommet would do nicely to protect the wires from chaffing at the thru-hole.

    Excellent build! Regarding all the welding, I'd absolutely recommend getting a tig-welder!:) No slag (so no clean up), easy to get beautiful welds, and an incredible dexterity when it comes to the amperage settings. And you can do tiny welds or heavy duty stuff with the same equipment. I'd be surprised if you don't follow This Old Tony yet, but there you can get a lot of tips an inspiration regarding tig.

    Very professional looking heat treat oven, well done. There is just one thing that worries me about this oven and it worried me about your previous furnace build too - you don't appear to have earthed the chassis. You must earth the metal chassis and run the oven off an RCD - you have live heating coils and other cables in very close proximity to metal you don't want to be live.

I used a cheap switch also but I was worried about running high loads through it so I ran the hot all the way to the SSR and then jumpered back to the 20a switch to power my PID, fans and amp meter. I was just wondering if you have fried a switch or not. I am not saying you are going to cook It. I just didn't trust such a light weight super cheap switch on my set up. I mean I did but I didn't want all that current running through it. Anyway well done looks really nice.
