I Forge Iron

Looking for Smithy to visit/use in Dallas


Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I've recently moved into an apartment in Dallas from east Texas. As some of you may know, apartment complexes generally don't view blacksmithing on the property favourably. Some swill about fire hazards, noise pollution, smoke, etc. Since it is difficult to make it back home to my parents house to light the forge, I was wondering if anyone had a smithy in Dallas they wouldn't mind sharing with a po boy like me. I like long walks on the beach, and all that. I'd provide my own materials and pay for fuel, I might even be your friend (ok, I'll throw in the friendship with the deal).

 

:)

This next summer, I bought a brand new 150lb anvil, got a hand crank buffalo blower, and a 12" round pass forge firepot. I'm about to build my new forge. Got some of the stuff together to make a small propane forge for knife making also. Going to make tools first mostly, all the tongs I think I'll need, hot cutting chisels, hardy tools, and that stuff. Hopefully I'll have a decent collection by the time I get to Stephenville.
