Love your channel. I realise this vid is 4+ years old, but I only recently found your channel and subed. In the '90's I worked in a machine shop that had a gas fired furnace about 50% bigger than yours. It fed a gravity die casting machine that produced about 50 parts per hour. There was a perforated metal basket above the furnace to preheat the "off cuts" from previous castings. That's where my lunch went :) On the 2~3 days a month when the foundry was run there was no lunch break, and I ran it 10 hours straight. So lunch on the go was most appreciated.

Nice one David! - Great video as always ;-) Great castings and a great lunch too!, I can't believe your misses cuts the red peppers and onions just like my mom does! - This is so ironic!! You always make metal casting look like child's play - A true professional.

I enjoy listening to the English countryside in your videos. the birds are the best...I thought I heard a sheep or cow in some of your other videos. the occasional passing vehicle doesn't really bother me because it's so infrequent compared to where I live (next to 10 lane highway) really is a peaceful, beautiful countryside, especially up north and the Midlands, the Peak District is especially beautiful ....sounds like I'm about due for another trip over lol

Well this is an interesting video. It is I believe the first time we get to see Mrs Myfordboy, plus a demonstration of myfordboy's cooking skills with his new oil fired furnace. Is a myfordboy furnace cooking channel on the cards perhaps? The castings appear to be turning out better than ever now. Keep up the good work, we all await your next video. Mark

Hey myfordboy, I've watched a lot of your videos. I just realized the style you shoot your video is the similar to another of one of my favorite videos called, "Alone in the Wilderness." It's a documentary of living alone in Alaska starting in 1968 and the subject starts by building everything he needs to live. Audio in the film is dubbed in at a later time though. I know this isn't related directly to the video above but I thought it was interesting. Anyone else agree?

One thing to keep in mind is if you use motor oil, it releases a lot of heavy metals and nasty stuff in the air such as arsenic and lead. Your furnace seems to burn a lot cleaner than mine does so you must not be using motor oil. I usually get a lot of black smoke afterwards, which is something I wouldn't want to put food in! Lol! I did start using kerosene recently and I am much more pleased with the way it burns. and starts. Nice and clean!

@MattsMotorz9 жыл бұрын
theoretical physicist In my experience, that is no longer true. At least here in the states. Now a days there are strict EPA regulations on businesses that get rid of their used oil. Many times they simply are not allowed to give it to anyone except licensed companies that recycle it.

@MattsMotorz9 жыл бұрын
Different oils emit different elements into the atmosphere when burned. Used motor oil is the worst in this respect, because it picks up heavy metals and other toxic chemicals when in use. I don't know much about Linseed oil though, but there is no way it was nearly as toxic if they were frying things in it and eating it.
