  1. I Have a micro torch that produces a flame about 3/4 inch long and 1/8 inch round at the base of the flame
  2. Here it is as it is. If I need to make a new larger forge what would be the perfect inside dimensions for these burners ? Hmm... I gues drag and drop doesn't work on this forum. Can I attach pics and or movies to the reply ? Ahgg!!I just ran out ouf fuel. I guess there will be no tweaking of the flame this weekend. Maybe its a good time to make a new forge of the correct volume. Could some one point out where to look or how the figure that out ?
  3. Ok sounds like i've got some homework. I'll Take some pics of how it is now and some of the results of the changes that are suggested and post again. BTW I am located in Montgomery, NY 12549. For the last fifteen years i have hosted a blacksmith meet here at my shop. This year it is on the 22 of March. All are welcome. We have a demonstrator in the morning. It is always a good time!

  4. Hi, guys, Long time lurker first time caller.... I have got a small N.C. forge about 12.5x6x3" inside dia. stock, i've used it for years but it has never got hot enough and never enough heat to weld with by a long shot. I have two Ron Reil "T" rex burners but they are a few years old, i'm not sure if they are his most current design. just lately I've been wishing I could weld with this forge, so I have been experimenting. To no avail, maybe worse. I put the two T rex burners in the forge, hard to light low temp. and they "puff" as if someone was turning on and off the gas really quickly. Also the air vents need to be open fully for it to work at all. From the descriptions of the T Rex burner and the what I've read this system should be great. I'm afraid I'm may be missing something. Any thoughts as to how I might proceed? Thanks in advance Greg
