DIY Vacuum Furnace - A Project I would like to see here

[bcall2043]

From another thread:

Have you considered 8620 and Nitriding? I'm toying with building a vacuum furnace with gas nitride capability. I do a few small parts, and hate the minimums I pay at the heat treaters.

Tony,

I would love to follow your project here. I'm sure there are others that would also. This would be a great addition to a Hobby-Machinest tool collection.

It's currently on the drawing board. A likely winter project. Will be a combination vacuum/controlled atmosphere furnace. I want to be able to flood it with various gases.

Looking forward to your project. Thanks for sharing.
