Making a gas forge
Hawkdancer:
Be sure to open the valve and stand back a ways before creating a .44 magnum vent hole in the bottom! >:D (lol). I wonder if a 30 lb. bottle would be more versatile as far as being deeper for longer stock?

I started on the burners tonight. I have them assembled but I still have a little work to do before they are done. I made temporary air choke plates. I will make some out of thicker metal. I need to tack weld the nozzles in place so they stay centered.
Pat B:
That thing looks like it will fly, Clint. I'm sure it will heat up steel.
KHalverson:
once you get those burners tuned that thing will go to welding heat no problem.
I need to build a new propane forge myself and a new coal forge.
osage outlaw:
The nozzles are tack welded in place and I could do a proper test run. They worked great. I need to figure out a better option for the air choke plates. I'll do that after I get it all installed.
