Home-made furnace for hardening
Hi gents!
I decided to make a muffle furnace
I read the forums, made calculations, collected materials.
For hardening of knives and razor blades to me more than enough
Internal Dimensions: Diameter - 50 mm, length - 280 mm. The design temperature up to 1000 degrees. Celsius.
Automatic first made on thyristors, but for some reason he was burned in the tests, and I remade by a magnetic switch. It seems as long as everything works. Will soon begin full operation, except the furnace should be much more.

Asbestos is highly carcinogenic (asbestos particles cause lung cancer), and is not sold anymore in many Western European countries.

You have a very large selection of thermal insulation, you can do without asbestos. I used what I had.Neil Miller likes this.If something is unclear in the text, please correct me ......
