Does anyone have any plans on building a furnace that uses charcoal to
melt brass, copper, silver, aluminum, and pot metal? If so, please e-mail
it to me. Also, will plaster of paris work for casting brass, silver, or
copper?

Corwin,

I have a book called "The Metalcaster's Bible" which has information on 
building a cupola. I believe that is what your looking for. I have no 
experience casting (except in high school shop class about 10 years ago) 
but I plan to build a small gas furnice and start with aluminum as soon 
as I can find a sorce for ingots. I dread paying shipping cost from far 
away.
