The burner that I posted about a couple weeks ago that I was building for a guy in Tulsa, heres the results of that.

hope to put it on oil next weekend once the top of the furnace is completed.
furnace construction is fiber 8 LB/foot and 2600 degree fire brick, furnace heats up like really fast, as you can see from the video the furnace is made for a lot larger crucible then an A10, with the larger crucible in it there will be a lot better use of the heat and with a top that has a lot smaller exhaust opening then just covering half of the top with some fiber.
really nice furnace.
