Charcoal Air Furnace for Crucibles, Drawn by a Chimney
The chemist's furnace for melting in crucibles needs no bellows: a firebrick box closed on every side, air entering only under the grate, and a tall chimney to draw it through the burning charcoal. George Fownes (1856) describes it; a sliding damper in the flue sets the heat, from dull red upward.
The picture: a 16th-century assay workshop woodcut with wind furnaces, one on a tripod, for melting silver in crucibles (Deutsche Fotothek).

Ash pit and grate
Lay a level firebrick base and build a low ash pit with an opening at the front. Forge bars from wrought iron rod and set them across the top as the grate, a finger's width apart.

Fire box
Build a square box of firebricks on the grate, wide enough for a crucible with a hand's width of charcoal all round, and tall enough to cover it. Joint every brick thinly with the fireclay mortar.

Flue, chimney and damper
Flue, chimney and damper
Lead a flue out near the top into a tall chimney pipe. Fit an iron sliding plate across the flue as a damper. Close the top with a loose firebrick lid.

Dry and first fire
Let the mortar dry for days, then light a small charcoal fire and raise it slowly over an hour or two so the joints do not crack.

The principle and the damper are Fownes's; the sizes, the mortar mix and the draught formula's working figures are ours. Charcoal fires make carbon monoxide: work outdoors or under a good chimney.
