How to make a microwave kiln

[ALIEN!]

Found this, thought I'd share. The audio is terrible, but it's a nice thorough explanation of how to make one.

Hi,

This is pretty new to me.
So I´d like to ask if it´s possible to melt boro in the microwave?
Are there any threads here about this?
Thanks,Axel

[ALIEN!]

yeah, you can fuse boro in one.

I got an old Microwave just waiting for this! Thanks for he video Alien, been waiting to find something to do with my scrap bucket!

Thanks for sharing. The sound was crappy...good advice about left/right.

I have some rigidized fiber board, I've just been wondering what to use for the susceptor.

That old silicon carbide in the garage will do just fine, I guess.

Thanks!
