  1. Harris, Try recessing the burner so that 1/2 to 1" of K-Wool extends byond the tip. Then form the K-Wool to create a flare. This will greatly reduce the tip temps. Also by applyong your refractory material to the outside of the tip of the burner will prolong its life. Drill your orofice with a #70 drill bit and then use higher pressures. Around 30 lbs. I occaissionaly use a stainless forge with three 11/4" burners with great success. Burn back has not been a problem.
  2. I've been making knives for years. New to Forging. Just refurbed a Champion Forge circ 1901. Joined the forum to learn a little about how to use it.
