[QUOTE="Tom O, post: 16659, member: 19"] Is there a place in Calgary to get some zinc ingots or melting scraps? I picked up this melting pot at Protospace the other day it needs the temp controller and power source to pull in the contactor . [ATTACH=full]6067[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]6068[/ATTACH] It says 1000 degrees f so it should be good for lead, zinc, and Babbitt or that’s what I’m hoping I need to find a plug for the separate control unit to connect the 120 v. [ATTACH=full]6069[/ATTACH] That plug there, strange looking beast! The other is where the plug for the thermal couple goes. [ATTACH=full]6070[/ATTACH] Here it is jury rigged and the contact pulls in as it should. So first test I shut it down at 520 degrees f till I can build a temp control unit. I have a pid and the ss switch the k type thermalcouple is in it but I am not sure what wire to use for it resistance wise to go to the pid control. [/QUOTE]
