Okay Iam sure iam not the only one who keeps scrap metal and end cuts (FOOT LONG ) how do yall store your metal from sticks to small junk  pics would be great thanks

​great design super nice

​DAM

For some reason can't get in touch with anyone at zoeller forge are they closed?

Big Giant Swords = Big waste of time

do you think 16 gage tubing would be to light of a material fot this type of grinder?

great idea ,good place to hold scrap stock

thanks for clearing up the info folks i new that yall would have a idea about it ,bout one of the best knives i have purchased was a Bob Doizer blade skined 6 deer before it need touching again

okay i get the just of this process ,my question is how does his process work ? iam trying to post the link to the video but having no luck. At 2.27 in the video he says there is no heat treating process that the files start at around a rc hardness of 60 and and i quote ( i anneal them to around a rc of 50) thats it ,now knowing what annealed is how does this commint hold up ?

So i came across the youtube vids on Moriss knives and he commented that he does not harden his blades that he aneals them instead ,so my question is he just putting them in a oven at 400 for a hour or is he bringing them to critcal then letting them cool on there on say in ash or vermecalite ?   anyone have any plans on his grinder setup also?

been thinkng on making sum kitchen items for christmas the pipe caps work great for my ladels now i going to get yalls input on spatulas what gage sheet metal woul yall use? metal or aluminum thansk for the help folks ,,,,,,,if you have any other kitchen ideas shoot them to me thanks

for sum reason in or area (south Ms) the scrap yards will not sell or let you even in unless your selling

Is there anywere to get bowl blanks for making ladels ?

is it okay to make your hardy tools using your anvil or should one use a swage block or a striking anvil

Well went with the Dayton 2C647A blower motor easy install and if it didn't do what I wanted I wasn't out a arm and a leg (like I was trying to find a vintage electric blower),works great will need a air gate if not you could burn up a lot of coke, heated 1 in bar in no time tried to control the air flow by placing a cover over the intake side but didn't take it down much, unless your using a hand crank safe to assume you need a air gate thanks for the help folks time to heat sum iron

will be using coke, my bowl is the Vulcan model and elbow are from Centaur the fan should be no more then 3 feet from elbow 2 in inlet on elbow I think

Narrowed it down to two fans  the first fan is a Kayne and Sons blower fan it sells for 175.00 the second one iam thinking on is the Dayton 2c647 that Centaur sells for 89.00 ,like yalls input on these two choices just want to make my forge right the first time .and not have to upgrade later thanks
