    Default Recipe for ceramic cement

    Does anyone have a recipe for a ceramic cement for lining a small kiln for melting aluminium and or brass?

    Thanks in advance

    Start with https://www.pugmill.com.au/adelaide-ceramic-specialist

    eg. https://www.pugmill.com.au/shop/air%...tail/offset/0?

    There may be cheaper sources, so also search for other pottery suppliers.

    It should be possible to buy a bag of fireclay but if you want to just mix your own, a 1:1 mix of Plaster of Paris and sand can be used.
    Not sure how long it would last though.
    This is a You Tube of a guy making a small forge but could just as easily be used as a furnace

    Many of his videos are worth watching.

    Hope this helps,
