Hello new guy here. I purchased a Taheri blower on ebay. It arrived broken and bent handle a 2" outlet, it was cast iron body with I assume iron gears, way overpriced at $140.00 so I returned it , and have Ben researching 110 volt electrics with high static pressure and about 125 to 150 cfm's for a small forge. I plan on using a blast gate or air-gate which I found on line for about $7.00 less delivery. Everything I have read said that trying to slow the motor down decreases motor life. I am wondering does any one have problems with squirrel cage motors vs centrifugal impeller type. I am an amateur at best. The forge I'm using is a centaur 12" round on a home made table. Kayne and sons has a 125 cfm for about $125.00 electric made in China any input on cfm's and how much do you need?
