Pretty blame neat Clint!!Now how hot is it going to get in there?2000 degrees or better?

osage outlaw:
I'm not sure Ed.  I'm hoping it gets hot enough for forge welding.

Pappy:
That is looking very good Clint. :)

The rigidizer took longer than expected to dry because the temperature dropped.  I put a space heater blowing through it for 24 hours and that dried it out.  I put the first coat of Kast-O-lite over the insulation.  It's a castable refractory cement.  I bought 15 lbs of this stuff and used about 6 lbs so far on the base coat. 

TRiggs:
Just a little tip, you should remove the feet on your forge and re-weld them so that your torches are straight up and down. Your torches come in at a 1:30 position and blow to a 7:30 position that means your heat goes that way also your going to want your heat right in the center where your metal is gong to be sitting you will save gas and heat your metal faster.
