[TheForge] Ceramic chip forge

[Peter Fels And Phoebe Palmer]

What Al found was that he spent a lot of time clearing his metering 
valves using drain oil..lots of bonus stuff comes with it. I think he 
ended up with his tank on a stand so gravity flow forced the oil through 
an auto engine filter.
I think he tried atomizing the oil but  the small openings kept clogging 
and the whole system choked when it got cold outside.
He used  a  steel pipe going into a firebox with an oil drip  into the 
air blast  coming through the pipe. The end of the pipe was red hot 
where it entered the firebox so the oil was pretty much vaporized by the 
time it hit the incandescent firebox walls.
