So I decided to try out my Christmas present today. 
I got a set of crucibles, and had some gold laying around, and thought lets give it a go.
So I put the flux and thinner in it and made my homemade kiln. 
I got it red hot, and everything was going great, until for some reason I decided to pour it into water, and then it went into a million pieces. So I put it back in and fired it up again. This time not so much luck it would not melt down again. SO I AM GIVING IT ONE MORE TRY.... and then I may have to call a friend and ask for some help. The key is to be safe make sure to have some gloves, I have already burned my hand a little. Well I got to get back to it....
Pretty cool hobby but seems like a challenging one... you sure don’t mess around smelting gold right away! Have you smelted anything else before?

Ya, I have melted cans in a camp fire if that counts. I guess I try and learn by failure. That is how I have done it my whole life.

I count it a success with no injuries, and my house still standing, but I will need a hotter burner.

Just get the safety tool so you don't burn your hand again and if it didn't work the next time. I suggest you call for help. I hope you succeed this time

Failure is the state or state of not meeting an attractive or expected objective,and might be seen as the inverse of success.Product failure ranges from failure to pitch the item to crack of the product,in the most pessimistic scenarios prompting individual injury,the territory of measurable designing.
