I want to build an outdoor foundry and have been looking stuff up on the internet regarding how to do it and had some questions. I do plan to use propane as fuel.
1. I was gonna use firebrick but the wool stuff is supposed to heat up quicker and thus save fuel. But wouldn't moisture get into the wool if left outside? Guess it would need a tarp covering.
2. Can a small foundry for blacksmithing double as a place for aluminum castings (dual usage?)
There's a lot of info online, btw, but very little I found that useful
