Furnace as in patio heater or more like a forge? I have a couple of 19kg bottles up in Yorkshire that I need to find a use for so looking for ideas, I don't need a piggy BBQ or a Minion patio heater before anyone proffers.

Make a Mini cement mixer with it or cut most of the body off and replace it with a bolt on frame of 10 mm stainless 2 mm thick wire mesh and use it cement mixer style as a powered garden sieve or compost sieve . Use the brass valve end as the boss to fit it on the driving shaft , it could be an external fitted simple sleeve & R clip . So you can interchange between mixer & riddle .
The micro mini mix can also be used with a small shovel of sand & gravel & a cuple of pints of tap water to clean a bucket of freshly collected salt water mussels of beards & barnacles .

Got my sheet winch parts from the cutter, should weld them up on monday.

That will be strap mount reinforcement and webbs underside to stop it bending, though sheet winches have a low amount lever as the rope of so low on the capstan



Already have an iteration will have a shackle attachment at the base to allow using it strap against a post for pulling.

Also need to find a suitable cleat to tie of the line
