Rhett and I got you hooked on tools didn't we??? lol looks good cant wait to forge again.

I like L brand but then ive never forged with a good seam of coal before too around here its around the size of a quarter and up the a baseball a fair bit of clink little green tint in the smoke and about I think 7 $ for a 50lb bag but you have to buy 2000 lbs

when we gonna do it again rhett?

this should answer a lot of your questions

kyler uses a hair dryer for a blower but has only about 20 1/8 in. hole drilled in his brake drum for air could be those get blocked off i have told him personaly to drill bigger holes in it but ah well.......

thanks guys matt it was just some scrap rebar i tacked on some plasma scrap it does direct the air flow a bit to the side where the blower is when theres no coal in it i havent made a fire in it yet that for the evening! dale i hope it is

Rhett (rhett didnt take the time i did on mine but it still works great) and i made a new forge this last week here are the progress pics of my forge last 2 pics are of the firepot itself the slotted table the flanged firepot firepot in place air flow adjustment last to pics are of the clinker breaker set up these last pics are of the finished forge

yes thank you guys for doing the knife chat I still need to make time to read the stickies

got the plans today cant wait to get started on it

i could try that but everyone i know has no need for one and i wouldnt want to sell my first 20 or so

here it is beside a normal spike

BFN thats what it is i did a little research after posting and i learned they are used in concrete ties. mine is close to the normal size but the head is completely round

i have one rr spike thats twisted i am guessing it was used kind of like a screw so it wouldnt work loose as fast but idk what to do with it i dont really want to mess up the twist but i can and will if i dont think of other ideas.

door closed cable pulley system outside motor and winch and brake partway up all the way up dads reason for the door (its fs) beechcraft sundowner 82' the specifications would be the really close to the same on this one though http://www.planeandpilotmag.com/aircraft/specifications/beechcraft/1977-beech-sundowner-n18861.html a few upgrades to my forge table storge table underneath and cold bent hooks for stock racks onthe back and sides dads gasser that help? thanks, Royce

i forge after dark most of the time with a light on the anvils and there is a door o can let up right where the picture was taken that lifts out and shades the area the forge is also on the north side of the buiding shade isnt too much of a problem just rain and wind soon to be remeded thpough

am probably gonna mail a check tommorrow to Mr Spencer for plans but i do have one question are the dies welded to a plate which in turn is bolted to the anvil? if so then they would still be interchangable

Mr Clay Spencer told me about one for $2000 said it was a good deal sooooo...... thank you mods for deleteing all the extra posts.
