Icelandic Smelt ONE - published images

tp://www.warehamforge.ca/ironsmelting/icelandicA/

This has the images from the weekend's effort plus their brief commentary at this point. I'm still working on the full description and formatting up the experimental sequence details.

Roughly:

TIME - preheat two hours / main smelt four hours

CHARCOAL - 270 litres

ORE - 11 kg

BLOOM - 6 kg

Keep tuned - what was learned this experiment will be directly applied to the Oct 27 smelt.
