High temperature SAND?

Now that I think about it a finer grit powder might work better, say 600 to 1200 grit. It seems like a dry medium would be safer than a salt pot. I bet if you mixed in some charcoal powder, it would help with scale and decarb too.
 
I just snatched up a bag of all purpose silica sand, i didn't feel any need for any special sand.

You're not saying anything I haven't been experiencing! No money budget sucks all the time! It's taken me 20 years to build up my tooling to what I've got. Fortunately I married someone who is cool with what I do (most chicks see the shop as competing for time and attention, and a waste of time and money. As for the money thing, once I showed my wife that there was no tool purchase that had not paid for itself at least twofold, if I can pay for a tool she doesn't ever bitch about the money spent)
Keep the fire lit!

Dude, you are so lucky.......:D.
 
I grabbed a bag of all purpose sand, i don't think a finer or rougher sand makes a difference, this all purpose sand is pretty fine anyway.
