Was lookin on ebay at lp gas burners. Gonna use it to melt ww down into ingots. Fully adjustable heat by lp regulator pressure. $80.00 to my door. Says h/d frame, cast iron burner, braided stainless hose, adj. Regulator. Was going to consider one of those satin smelters but i think there out of business because there web / contact info is know where to be found. 200,000 btu,s should get em melting quickly i think. Your thoughts fellas. Going to use a big, deep iron skillit with it, ladle pouring .

It sounds like it should do the job. Consider using a cut off 20# propane bottle for a smelting pot.

Be sure and get a Turkey Frying Pot.....you think fried chicken is good...just wait until you try Fried Turkey.... Oh Yeah !!!!

No sense letting that burner sit around when you aren't smelting.
