Anvillian: I was busy juggling pictures when you posted and missed yours as I submitted. As I imagince things, there will be an inside flue for some distance... probably at least 6' to 8' inside.

Thanks, Glenn and T-Gold. I'm not quite sure how to incorporate a 45

The shell of my new shop is nearing completion... we'll probably start on the standing seam roof later this coming week(using the tools we made!). I now have to actually think about setting up the forge. I do not want to go through the roof. The forge will be against the end wall and I expect to put the chimney on the outside, extending above the roof line. The chimney will have to be over 20' high. Sooo....
I'm interested in recommendations. The current direction of my line of thinking is standard block chimney with standard flue liner, with a 'T' for the forge duct. It means two right angles, but should still draw if its big enough. I'll post pictures of what I'm facing soon (if we can still do that).
