Thanks for the comments. About a forge, I am not sure what it would cost me to run considering the price of propane. Acetalene is costing me $23 for a 140 size tank. One benefit a forge would give me would be to heat the shop some while working.

my propane forge definately helps to heat the shop while I'm there. It's been freezing or below for weeks now. I've got a 25 gal. propane tank and that will give me close to 100 hours of forging time. I've never tried to track it very acurately yet. Maybe this time I will.

That's some great work that you're doing with just a torch!

Thanks Larry for the comment.

I am going to be getting a forge soon. Not sure if I will build or buy yet. I have several overhead propane heaters that are 3 and 3 burners and I think they will do well. I really just need to brick up a box and install them. I do find that while the torch is some what slow it also is a convenience in that I can easily control my heat application to a very specific area. Much of the work I do is small and this allows me to keep heat off of finer points.
