    Thanks for the information. I watched HT1s video it looked like he puts it in a tube and the end is just sticking out.

    Bronze pour time

    So I built a similar thermocouple. It works great. Problem is it's melting the thermocouple. I've used it twice. Should I buy the one from Mifco?...

    Bronze pour time

    I have a cheap one and it is junk. Put it in the metal and it read "HI" which made me think it didn't reach the temp I needed even though it said 2200
