I visited the welding class at the high school on Sat. evening (may 2024). The students were tapping the furnace at night which made a fantastic fireworks show.
I have several other similar iron pouring videos. Click on the links below.

Great to see an excellent teacher working with some obviously interested students. What a good educational environment looks like. Did this old retired mechanical engineer's heart good over coffee. Back in the mid 1960s my one brother in law had just got out of the Army and worked as a brake man on the 'connector' railroad in Pittsburgh. They spotted the cars under the blast furnaces and pulled the molten iron out. Having no seniority he worked 3d shift. Has good stories about doing this on an industrial scale - wish I could have seen it in person. A bygone era now.

Hi Mr. Pete, this reminded me when I was in high school metal shop, my shop teacher liked my friend and I because we always tried to work out different ways to do things. One day while everyone else was pouring the standard aluminum mold my friend and I asked if we could try to pour a brass mold and the teacher thought it would be a great idea for the class to see since it was not part of the normal class. When he came in with several pop bottles we were a bit surprised but soon remembered brass POPs when it first turns liquid so the glass was there to act as a lid until the brass became molten. The mild turned out great and of course the other guys wanted to try the brass for themselves. Thanks great video and memory too.

Gotta be careful when melting on concrete. I set up a small furnace once on a concrete patio. Apparently there was moisture in the concrete. After about 10 minutes of intense heat the concrete exploded. It was an explosion equivalent to a cherry bomb or m-80 firework. The moisture in the concrete heated and built up enough pressure to explode a basketball sized pock mark on the patio. Several days later I was working on the roof of my two story house and found pieces of concrete on the roof! Probably best to pour in a container elevated above the concrete. I had heard of this happening before but just said aw-bullsh**. I don't say that anymore!

Even over 20 years ago in my high school the wood and metal shop was all but abandoned; shop teacher had access to the machines but due to insurance reasons (I was told) no classes were offered in there to make things or get any kids interested in shop class. Closest I had was manual drafting courses because the school couldn't afford new computers and software for the computer drafting or CAD stuff. I never did well in school, but after school went into the shop area to use tools (with teachers permission) I knew I liked it but working with your hands is frowned upon for some reason.

The 6 inch was suppose to come with dividing plates but of course only has the indexing. Of anyone I know it's mrpete222 that could possibly tell me if and where i could find those plates if at all.
