  1. Hello !
    Nice to meet you.

    I have found this document on : alt.crafts.blacksmithing newsgroup

    "recommended flux for mild steel is clean sand and borax. mixed 4
    parts sand and 1 part borax..
    Ordinary borax contains water, when this is heated, bubbles and is
    cooled it becomes borax glass. Pulverize this and mix 4 parts of this
    to 1 part sal ammoniac (ammonium chloride). This mix is good for
    carbon steels..
    High carbon steel flux is 50% anhydrous borax, 25% boric acid and
    25%silica sand.
    Where would I get these?? Let your fingers walk.. Call chemical supply
    houses.."

    Do you confirm this method ?

    Many thanks

  3. Hello guys !

    probably I became the Italian importer, but I must still take one definitive decision.

    first I try my hammer, and after I can built a site with many photo specification ed modified to improve this item.

    4 weeks and arrived to my house, at very very low price.

    I don't now but I will inquire on the shipping costs to ship in usa.

    I can take at lower price, we are in negotiation.

    Stay tyned !

    Have a nice days !

  4. hello guys !
    How are you ?

    I buy a c41-15 power hammer, but it will arrive on may ....

    it's work for

    1 3/16 square
    1 3/8 round

    all specification
    New Page 1

    for me is the best way, low cost low it occupies little space.

    the quality of product is better than the past years, many importers buy anyang hammer, uk, de, usa, india, romania etc etc

    I will try and then I will make to know you, with photo and the other tolls dgt


    have a good day !

  5. Hi,
    How do you do ?

    I need a hammer help !

    air hammer homemade :
    compressor cost it's very high !

    mechanical hammer (krusty or similar)
    simple and economic

    but if I would job a 20x20 square or round 20 x 20 mm o size bar, It's a good idea built a krusty hammer with a plans of D. gentile (FERRUM D. Gentile) ?


    When I find a video of krusty or air hammer (homemade) to see ?

    Youtube or ? Do you have a link ? I must attemp until this night to see on my computer at home.

    need help guys !

    thank you very much !
    Have a nice days

  6. Goodmorning guys !

    I would make a gas forge, for my small private activity, but I don’t know the potential of side arm burner of zoller or t-rex.

    My hypothetical forge must have this dimensions : 50 x 30 x 20 mm


    This forge is the best in italy for small activity : Forno AR/1 from www.ARitalia.it but it’s expensive


    If I buy your side arm burner, I should rebluild the same as carateristic of this commercial gas forge ? That is ….


    I must build a forge for normal forging works, with 50 x 30 x 20 of dimension, and two of your burner, but I it catches up the optimal temperature ?

    I arrive at 1300

  7. many thanks guys !

    I don't try metal engraving, but now I make a ten chesels for this, o an other job with iron

    I use a K110 or k100 for my chisels, tempering in oil at 900degree.

    I work wood, beech wood, buxus for turning, and juglans regia for table or other jobs.

    O.T. I'm content it appeals to my city; but I'm very very rabid for the political class in italy. I don't approve nothing !
