forge

<< < (3/3)

Nomad_Medic:
Osage- That looks like a great start. Yes, you look like you're running more of a blast furnace than a forge there. If you have no other way to adjust it, you should be able to improve a gate valve either at the inlet or outlet side. You might consider getting the whole thing off the ground unless your back is better than mine.

Goddard's book is a good one but I would have to say for a more complete look at the craft to get "The Complete Modern Blacksmith".

I just scored a dead water water heater from the neighbor; can you say forge body? (And maybe a furnace body too!)

fredie:
