	** "channel type induction furnace" 1974 US Patent 3798344.
	* Other technology: With the right techniques, a microwave oven can apparently heat glass to its melting point of 1,500 °C. ( [http://www.popsci.com/diy/article/2003-09/smelting-microwave PopSci], [http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2008/02/video-micowave/ Wired], [http://www.wonderhowto.com/topic/fusing-glass-with-microwave-oven/ Howto]). That is slightly more than melting point of steel (more or less 1,400 °C). Is it possible to use similar techniques to form small steel parts in a off-the-shelf microwave?[http://home.c2i.net/metaphor/mvpage.html] Would a thin layer of glass floating on the molten steel help block oxidation?
	* Other technology: Is it possible to pre-heat the metal -- and the crucible -- with some kind of [[Solar Concentrators]], reducing the amount of electrical energy required to bring it the rest of the way up to melting temperature?
