Actually I made this exact foundry, same video and everything. I would not recommend getting the crucible that you linked. While it definitely will go IN the foundry, you need space below and around the crucible to put fuel for even heating. If you don't, you get hot and cold spots (relative) which can slow down the process, or damage the crucible. I bought the one linked below and while it is better than the one you linked I imagine, it is still sort of difficult getting the perfect circle of fire. I personally would go with the smallest possible. I'm a beginner like you are I imagine, so you shouldn't need to be casting with huge amounts of metal anyway, and even if you are this thing holds more than enough room to hold more material than I can procure.
