A cast iron or cast aluminum chiminea is always going to be a better investment that will last many years after a clay one falls apart. The majority of clay fireplaces have a life span of less then a year before needing to be replaced. We recommend metal chimineas to anyone considering purchasing a chiminea.

Pretty similar - PMC is another product from another company. There are some differences, but the overall concept is the same. See similar questions...

Relatively new to the USA & jewelry media, PMC is made of finely powdered Pure Silver, water, and binders. When heated to 800-850 degrees C. the organic binders burn off... leaving Pure 999 Silver! See similar questions...

With proper use and maintenance our cast iron and cast aluminum chimineas will last for many years. We believe there are too many products on the market today that are designed for a throw-away society. Mass marketed chiminea designs and fire pits do not have the durability or longevity of a Blue Rooster chiminea. Many times outdoor fireplaces look similar but are not the same material, weight or size. See similar questions...

Answer: We recommend a horse barn or run-in shed made of wood as your best choice for several reasons... The natural insulating properties of wood make it the obvious choice for construction of your horse barn or run-in shed. A horse barn made of wood will stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter ensuring your horse's maximum comfort regardless of the season. A wood horse barn is sturdier and safer then metal.

MetaL is shorthand for Meta-programming Language. Meta-programming is a method to develop computer programs. It works by generating source code in a target language from a program specification in a higher level language. MetaL programs source code is based on XML. MetaL compiler engine can be used to generate the same program from MetaL source code to potentially any target language. Currently supported target languages are PHP, Java and Perl.

Both are perfectly acceptable in full masonry fireplaces, it just depends on your personal preference. However, for the zero clearance models, we recommend using a triple wall metal flue system. See similar questions...

Answer: We consider wood to be the best material for horse barns because of the following characteristics: it stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter, virtually has no condensation, is quieter during storms, safer than metal (has less chance to injure your horse when kicked) and more durable (will not dent or puncture easily).

We always recommend Titanium or Blackline body jewellery, as this is a completely pure metal. Your piercing will heal at a substantially faster rate with this body jewellery. This is because it is biologically inert. See similar questions...

Fine silver and 24 K gold will work for sure, sterling sort of works, I bet stainless will work, you cant fire anything with copper in it. See similar questions...

We get our clay from a distributor in Minneapolis that mixes clay from a number of different sources. See similar questions...

A fire pit is an open burning bowl, whereas a chiminea is built with a chimney. The outdoor fireplace products on the market that have mesh wrap-arounds, multi openings or bowl designs should be considered fire pits. There are many fire pits incorrectly advertised as chimineas, but they are not chimineas. A chiminea will have a flue or chimney that drafts properly much like an indoor fireplace.

Met-Tile panels are made of Zincalume™ coated steel that provides excellent corrosion resistance for most applications. In oceanfront climates (i.e. within 1800 ft. of a salt water body) or other unusually corrosive environments, an aluminum substrate is recommended in place of steel. Visit the Met-Tile aluminum page for further instructions. See similar questions...

Yes indeed. There is the Speedfire Cone System - Comes complete with heatproof cone, a specially designed propane burner, pyrometer and propane bottle base. The fuel tank is NOT included - for shipping reasons but they are easy to find at hardware stores and many other places. Essentially a camping stove on steroids, what makes this different is that there is a pyrometer (a thermometer for high temperatures) so that you can maintain a precise temperature.

First we make accurate 4 view orthographic scale drawings of our design. Then an armature is made from plywood and blue foam to the rough shape of the model. The surface is roughed up and sealed with shellac. Then automotive modelling clay is thinly applied to form the final shape. Sculpting tools are used to refine the model. Kaneko Enterprises have a Clay Modeling book for sale. See similar questions...

Art Clay Silver is pure silver (99.9% pure) metal powder mixed with a non-toxic binder and water in a clay-like form. It models like clay, can be diluted to a slip, can be carved or filed when dry, and even reconstituted if it dries out. When fired, either in a kiln or by hand with a torch, the binder burns away, leaving a pure, 99.9% silver object. It is a totally cool thing! Art Clay Silver can be added to a variety of media: glass, ceramics, or porcelain to name a few. See similar questions...
