Thanks for the answers Frosty and Mikey, I really appreciate you taking the time to answer me.
I did indeed think it was too large, and i havent really calculated the inner measurements, its all guessing from eyesight. But nonetheless i wont use it as a forge, I'll find myself a smaller piece, a 10" Stove pipe, a smaller propane tank or anything that i can scavenge from around here. The ammo box sounds pretty perfect, but i doubt we have those easily accessible in Norway. And no, i was not planning on leaving the Ceramic wool open so i can breathe in the particles that it emits, i wanted to coat it with ITC or something that works as a hotface and protection of the wool for when i want to try pattern welding without ruining the wool with the borax. While im on that topic, how do you protect your furnace with from melted flux? do you put firebrick inside for when you are using flux?
I'd say i have the skills to make such a thing, Im educated as an Industrial Mechanic, I used to work for Rolls Royce before the oil price dropped and put tens of thousands out of work here.
You made the floor of the forge onto a jack so that you can raise and lower the inner height of the forge? Sounds like a masterpiece.
As Mikey said that you are using zirconium sicilate for the hotface? Would you mind teach me how to make it? its either that or the Plistix/Metrikote that Wayne suggested.
For the burner, would it be preferred to angle it so that the flame/heat follows the circular wall and heats up the forge evenly? I added a professionally drawn picture. And im thinking about going for the T burner, it seems like the easiest one to make, i dont need a forge which is really well made, just one that works without blowing up in my face or falling apart, im really eager to start hammering metal haha.
Also, i found another picture on google, I believe it is a design of yours Frosty, would this be a viable burner design i could use?
Also, do you have any books to recommend for beginners?
