Spoon-crucible for melting metals chamotte

Total length with handle approx. 18 cm, crucible diameter approx. 5, 5 cm.

While Europe, Asia and America use a variety of not very convenient devices for manual melting and casting of gold and silver, jewelers of some countries of the South American continent use for this purpose the invention of pre-Columbian Indians.

This is a very simple, convenient and durable crucible-a spoon made of a special type of clay that is extracted in a limited geographical area. In addition to the composition and additives, the method of firing on charcoal at a very high temperature and freezing cycles is unusual, so that the clay acquires amazing properties to repeatedly resist thermal shock.

The sizes of spoons vary from the smallest spoons to huge scoops with a capacity of several liters of molten metal.

The advantages of the spoon-Cup:

The handle is short, it is convenient to hold during melting and it is very convenient to cast metal in the mold. The difference can be felt if you try to quickly pour water into the narrow neck of the bottle from a teaspoon or a long-handled cocktail spoon.

Despite the fact that the handle is very short, it does not warm up at all during melting! You can hold it with your hand without a protective glove. After several consecutive swimming trunks, the handle may become just a little warm.

There is 100% confidence that the crucible with the melt will not fall out of the usual tricky design with clamping screws.

The spoon is suitable for right-handed and left-handed people, the direction of metal discharge is located on both sides

And finally, the biggest bonus: the metal in this spoon melts very quickly thanks to the material and construction, you do not need to cover the crucible with reflective objects, just direct the flame inside the spoon.

The spoon is durable if it is not dropped from a great height on the floor.

The first time, as in the case of a standard chamotte crucible, the spoon must be drilled inside until a glossy surface is obtained. Mark the type of metal by making an inscription on the spoon with a graphite pencil.
