Melting Aluminium with brick furnace oil fired.

Melting scrap aluminium for casting with the brick furnace using waste oil as heat source. See my other 80 Vids for how to build these burners and how they work. Please don't forget to like, comment and share this vid around.
Waste oil provides a cheap and powerful fuel for melting all metals from aluminium casting through to cast iron.
This was the first time I have fired an oil burner in a long time but it lit right up and without trouble.
As it's been a while I thought I'd go over the setup of how this works yet again as I am always getting questions and maybe some people will not have seen my vids before.
The Aluminium melted much quicker in the furnace with the waste oil burner firing it up than with the wood I tried last time. I could have done better with the wood but using an oil burner if far easier and provides loads more heat with better control.
The furnace is made of Common house bricks. I used a clay and sand mix as a refractory but will re do it using some wire as a binder for it to stick to so it does not crumble as much.

Mate how much rubbish is left behind in the oil burn chamber after a few hours running

[@supersneakydotcom]

You forgot the enviro - Nazi's , even worse than safety sissies. Best to drizzle in the maximum used oil for best triggering effect 👌

[@mukamadyahya2579]

i like the way you play with fire

[@mmolokikwadiba4777]

What happens when wood finishes? Does oil keep supplying fire?

[@stephenagaertner]

Lmao! U should do stand up comedy!

[@mr.smileyken6364]

As an American, I love the metric jabs you give for standard conversions. I also love the "no safety sissys permitted " keep up the content- way better than any TV series or cable content!

God I hope you're really not cooking over that for God sakes

Been watching and enjoying your videos and humor. "How the devil are ya!?" LOL.

[@johnsilvey3208]

Love your vids .... very educational. Looks like you haven't done anything in a few years - have you retired from oil burning / melting / casting?

[@martyfoster7053]

Amused American here! Good stuff! LOL

I love the sign LOL

[@diyfitter7628]

Hey be careful, you don’t have gloves on you might get a paper cut from those safety signs

[@johnfrancis2227]

Yeah mate, you better rig up some floodlights. Working in a dark shadow is not safe. 😎🤣

[@jeffcameron7853]

For the Americans that's 25litres LOL! Funny AF! The actually adopted the metric system but most yanks don't even know it.

You need a safety screen behind you to keep that sun of ya back. You don't want to get a sunburn while ya

@Oil Burner what other channels are you on?

[@torchyboyz]

Hi oil burner. Is your oil feed pressure fed or drip fed? Thanks Paul from uk.

[@tomharrell1954]

Hi fire bug !

[@gumparkstation6051]

Hi oil man love ur vids.built one myself but it keeps blowing out .not sure what I've done wrong .think I might have used too thick a steel and it's not hot enough and it slowly gets cooled down by the fan
