I cast a bronze plaque for marking an Eagle Boy Scout project. I used a small foundry set up in my garage.

Like it was stated in another post, you have a fantastic furnace set-up. I'd like to learn where or how you came up with the design also. I just did my first pour of the lost wax method, and I'm hooked with the whole process.
