I decided to finally upgrade from a hole in the ground to a forge that stands off the ground.
The whole design was pretty easy, i just slapped everything together and seems to work fine, however i still need to cut out a generously sized slot in the side of the base so my steel can heat evenly (oops!)
( ) <---- i borrowed the design of this forge from this guy
Again the whole design of this thing is pretty straightforward, i use this peddle thingy to control airflow. ( i realize i am using alot of coal, i just dumped a bunch on their, later realizing that that was too much hehe =) )
