    I nominate HammerKid, Even though i fit the Specifications, HammerKid is much more active then me (my deep fried forge has something to do that.), and MUCH more submersed in the art of blacksmithing,

    I have $2400 into my forge currently, But i'd not sell it for a cent under $5500,

    My shop is built to the north of the house.... the compass has always pointed to it!

    Can you ship one to NC? i need a new stand!

    Check for burrs inside the tip (the hole in the $0.50 pipe across the top) if its a aspirated burner. I had similar problem,

    I have a gas forge, but i have experimented with wood(charcoal) forges. during this build you can make a Ground forge by digging two holes next to each other and putting a tunnel between them and hairdryer in one hole and fire in the other

    My dads being deployed to Iraq in a few weeks, first time its happened in 20 years in the service, we've been blessed so far.

    What you would get is mokume gane, I have done some research on the subject, You would have to form every thing before bonding or you would splash molten copper all over the place,

    You don't need a post vise right as you start. I've been smithing for six-seven months and I still use a mechanics bench vise(the kind you can get at any hardware store), and for an anvil you just need a hunk of steel bigger than your hammer(try a tractor weight, its big, heavy, and if you live in the country side- easy to come by.), Other than that good luck and keep at it!

    I going to get a load of horse shoes and old rasps from a guy we used to go to church with. I'll make a snakehide-antler knife and post a picture in the knife thread.

    I have the previous style of the 1-burner Bladesmith/welding forge from Diamondback, its a small operation but Mr.Meyers a blacksmith building for the needs of blacksmiths, i know i sound like a walking advertisement but My single burner diamondback forge heats faster than My uncle Kelly's two burner NC tool whisper daddy

    I've only been forging for six months and i have more scars on my left hand than i care to count.

    My family is very good friends with a few farmers around here, most won't let me leave without taking some old broken tool, last time i went Dad had to drag me away from the scrap pile and i still walked away with a heap of steel (and an anvil.)

    I like tru-temper, Hatashi, Milwaukee, and bobcat. We've own at least one tool from every brand, these are just some of my preferred brands.

    I use a Diamondback ironworks forge, its good- and can weld Link:http://www.diamondbackironworks.com/GOOGLE9e64d9483d5b3dca.html

    this thread is to small to post all the stuff i re-use, almost all the stuff i forge is 'junk' and my anvil is a tractor weight (i call it a 'generic brand'-inside joke) the stand is reclaimed lumber, the forge stand is an old skill saw table and pavers.

    Other... I have a Venturi gas forge, so a Combustion forced vacuum.
