Great video. Quick and to the point covering the basics....10 minutes shorter than most other uploaders

[mt]

Thank you. I really appreciate you focusing on what some people would say are the basics. These videos are great

[VincenzoForino-zd]

can liquid flux be used instead of the borax ?

[made-in-china]

For the crucible to last longer, you need to cover the back as well.

I've tried to glaze a crucible, but the borax just keeps clumping up into little beads in the crucible, rather than forming an even layer. How can I prevent this?

[dondoyle]

You mentioned a ventilation link - can’t find it in your links - otherwise good video

[tammisloan]

You mentioned in the video not to melt more than one kind of metal in your crucible. Does that also pertain to your ingot molds?

[KarlaWadley]

What type of eye protection do you use when melting the borax?

[kevinhubbard]

cool how do you do the big ones, so they dont crack or stick

[QARIB_JEWELRY]

Good. Thanks to you for dis nice video

[richarddietel]

Can you please add more info on the equipment your using? Thank you

[catherinemartina]

ok I've tried this with bernzomatic ( yellow tank) touch? the borox bubbled but nothing got glassy nor did it sticked? What did I do wrong?

[MysticNorthwest]

What type of borax are you using? Are certain kind or will any kind work for this?

[Sputnik]

Can you do this with normal borax like for laundry or do I need the stuff meant specifically for crucible

[_--__--___.]

Would air/acetylene be hot enough for a crucible this size ?

[catherinemartina]

can you use "borax" from the store...the box in the laundry department that says "borax"?

[starhawke]

What is the point of this if the birax melts at the same temperature as the metals i am trying to melt and cast? Won't the borax just melt into the metal and mix?

[bigalsspeedshop]

How do i get gold out of a crucible i didn’t prepare correctly

[Zampan]

Oxygen and natural gas or propane give a much cleaner flame than acetylene.
