I like the cleaver very nice but the handel seems a little large.

I found this on google and would like some input on this technique. If it is a good way it would be much easier for me.

well the base of the forge would be cinder bocls but were the fire could be would be brick i dont know if theres a difference.

Thats really great. How did you get the curve in it?

i found a site with another way to make charcoal. It seems easy for me than the other one.

hello my friends i have decided on the shape and size of my forge and i would like to get some feed back from you guys.

I would have the base of the forge 2 ft wide, 31/2 feet long and about 3 feet high made of cinder block.

the forge will be placed ontop of the base it will be 3 feet lond, 3 feet wide and 2 or 3 bricks high with a peice of metal running in the middal of the forge with holes in it to use a blower.

i would like some feed back from you guys on this design.

i am interested but i dont know where u live and i think the shippong would be huge were to do live by?

I already know that you could make a makeshift anvil out of railroad. but i would like to know where some have gotten there anvils so i have a idea were to go.

I live in new jersey near belivdere or hacketstown. were would i get Pocahontas #3?

thanks a so much now i have some info i will repost if i have nore questions. and would like kingsford carcoal work for fire :oops:

i want to get into blacksmithing. I have several questions about the whole of the process.
1. I dont have a lot of money. could i make my own forge out of lets say brick?
2. what do i use for the fire it self?
3. how do u fold the steel or iron or temper it?
4. and what tools should i have before i get started?

hey guys im realy glad i found this site. I've been wanting to try blacksmithing for a while and now i can get feedback from other people who have the same interests.
