i watched the video on Purgatory iron works. forges pt 3 or 4

i don't remember. i used that pipe for this forge

mine is 2 inch and don't know how long it is

yeah but I cant get the pipe where it will not burn

the first is what I took off the deck the second is the sheet metal work I did/ still have to do the third is the rotor fourth is the lawnmower I took apart fifth and 6th are the pipe and the whole thing

as promised Mod Note: Post edited to add photo captions what I took off the deck the sheet metal work I did/ still have to do the rotor the lawnmower I took apart the pipe and the whole thing

waiting for my phone to charge so I'll be available for a while.

Not making how to videos. just showing work I do fount my cellphone letting it charge probably so ill cover it in the video

nah I was lucky to find this one the last was dead and like I said I have a bad reputation with online forums but they are helpful. I am trust me I got a little closer last time with that dirt box but it wasn't right with the side shaft the whole pipe turned red. now progress. Its done just putting the final touches on it like a proper stand to hold it up. I didn't find my phone also so I'm gonna wait till Thursday and make a YouTube video unveiling the new forge. I have not in any way shape or form have paid for the coal. and it isn't going to be delivered I have to pick it up. I have $270 in the bank right now but I have to keep that until I buy the coal and ive wanted to get some stuff but I cant right now cause I still have to pay for it. now I'm sorry if I offended anyone in particular, like I said I'm not good at these online forums but I got to get help from somewhere. now I know we've said things and the kool see you around was not intentially bad I was respecting/ acknolging his leaving. I did not intend for you to take it that way but you did I followed your advice for the JOBD and it didn't work It failed horribly. - I will cover that in the YouTube video with explanation. now if all of the offending and the apologizing is done. - I have realized this thread has gotten way off topic and has drug on way too long. torch was actually easy. they were rusted too we tried the impact but that didn't work. now I'm off for the entire week and I have today and tomorrow to get the final touches done on the forge before I go and pick the 1600 lbs. of coal to use and my brother. I have made great progress. I'm going to find a mount for the anvil and when that's done I get the coal and poof I get to work on the tongs. and from this point on we stay on the topic of making rebar tongs, or the work involved. this will be the last time I say it Promise, from now on ill say I can buy it but it will have to wait until next Friday. - not an smart xxx comment don't take it that way

Yeah bout that... couldn't find ratchets so I took a torch to it to cut It out. thought you were talking about firebrick Yeah I have to get some pictures up. That's what ive kinda done already. I'm gonna look for my phone and charge it so I can get the pics out.

Kool see ya around hope to close this thread within next Monday.

yeah I thought about it but I don't have bolts. and I didn't get the flange the hard part to it is getting the pipe aligned. Pictures are a maybe I have to get my phone charged up and that could be tomorrow. I'm wondering about this but its the only way I have unless I rivet the deck to the flange. Yes I have thought of that but the bricks are expensive. and clay well I don't want another dirt filled nightmare again. ill think of something.

yeah we had fun with that and the cap pistols and grenades and what not. Ok everybody status update The forge is nearing completion with only $6 invested in it. yesterday I finished cutting the angle iron into plate about a 1/4 inch thick and welded it to the rotor I also took the truck and pulled out the old lawnmower and got the deck off and ready to weld the rotor in. and I didn't notice but this mower deck is almost perfectly circular I did some sheet metal work to the deck but didn't finish it almost done. ive got to cut the hole out in the plate I welded but I need to get the plasma to it up at my dads shop. the rotors hole is 3 inches the pipe I have is 2 inches. I got to cut the pipe with the sawzall and how do you keep the blades from bending I cut thru that angle iron with it but bent a blade, but I have a couple more. one I cut the hole I need to weld the pipe to the thing and weld the rotor to the deck. and make a frame. Now tomorrow is a community service day which is required by the charter schools but not by the state which means we don't have to go tomorrow. so more free time so have a good Monday I will be watching your posts.

why i said thought about it

cops are under apprecciated and have the worst publicity and backlash now guess what i found out how to do this for 6 bucks what i already paid for the rotor i found some 1/4 inch angle iron for the flange and some square tubing for a tee so its 6 bucks i kinda thought about being a cop cops and robbers fun game me and my brother played when we were young

ill keep that in mind

well the flasher had a dent in the side of it we didn't check fuses

actually I found a gas jug on the side of a bridge well I found out what's wrong with my truck. fuse blew out instead of flasher

probably so

the aluminium cans part I kinda knew about but the tail pipes and accessories not so much.

I just welded the old stud holes shut so I can drill the new ones grinded flat

yeah wasn't all bad. and its not too massive if my phone was working I would take a pic of it but its heavy

I forgot to add the part about the charcoal falling back thru the pipe and it was a little unstable and I ran out of wire when I was welding it to the barrel lid so I had to use the gas and I finished it up. but good news I have a new brake rotor that is massive. 6 bucks really you find this on the side of the highway

if you knew me personally I'm really bad with money. not all bad but bad enough my wallets on a chain @Charles R. Stevens ya wanna know whats in walking distance ok go to google maps type in east stamp creek rd. and my house is on the hill and on the gravel road. Pats cash and Carry and the garbage dump is about the only places within walking distance from my house and it horrible on you feet the terrain and the big semi trucks that come down the highway. and Dawns hair salon that's within walking distance and a landing if you really want a long trip to go. salem south Carolina 29676 well I'm gonna have to split and make myself scarce in 4 minutes see ya later

now hopefully things don't go all bad today. I have a project I'm working on in the shed but other than that I have to go to ace, and this is not me just blotting down what I have to do more or less what I'm doing. I also need to check on those brake rotors I call in about. at about 3:10 I'm going to leave
