Subject: Tinker-Molders
> I am trying to locate info. on the design and operation of the small
re-melt furnaces used by the Tinker-Molders in the 1700s. These portable
furnaces were about 9 in. diameter and 2 ft. tall. Made in 2 pieces, they
were tilted, as a unit, to pour. They were developed from the furnaces used
by Reaumur.

> It is my goal to make and operate one of these. Any help is greatly
appreciated.
