Very exciting, could you please supply a schematic?

What kind of resonant capacitors do you use with the work coil?

Dear Group,

I am posting this message in an attempt to gauge interest for a project I
have been working on.
I have been a hobbyist of metalworking for some time and currently posses
a
lathe and CNC milling machine which I enjoy the use of very much.
I have also cast metal using traditional foundry methods (gas / charcoal)
and this is what seeded my interest for this project.

I have designed an induction furnace which is currently in it's testing
stage.
Initially this furnace was not going to see light of day out side of my
own
workshop but while demonstrating it to a friend he showed a great deal of
interest and mentioned that many like minded hobbyists may be interested
in
such a device.

So I guess I am posting this to gauge interest from the group and seek
advice to what value both from usage and monetary you would put on it.

I would like to apologise in advance if members of this group see this
post
as a form of spam. Please be assured that this is not my intention.
I agree it would be nice to make a little cash out of ones hobby and give
up
the office job ;-)

Regards,
Steve.
