Platinum Crucible: Shaped from Foil in a Hollow in a Board (Morfit, 1849)
A small platinum crucible for igniting precipitates at high heat. Campbell Morfit (1849): "The experimenter himself can in any emergency readily form a crucible out of platinum foil by shaping it with the thumb or a small hammer, in a hemispherical cavity made in a board for the purpose."
Platinum crucibles must be of pure metal and hammered, not turned; thin enough to weigh on a delicate balance. Foil thickness and the size of the hollow are not given.

Make the hollow
Make the hollow
Cut a hemispherical cavity in a board, the size of the crucible wanted. Morfit's crucibles hold from a fluidrachm to three fluid ounces; a half-ounce one is the most needed in analysis. How the cavity is cut is not given (ours: a gouge in a hardwood board).

Care of the crucible
Care of the crucible
Blisters and flaws that appear after use come from impure metal and bad workmanship; remove them by the force of a small hammer. Loosen salts with boiling water and rub off stains with sand or pumice stone. Do not use sharp pointed instruments on it.
