  1. Frosty thanks, all of your advice is super useful! Basically the reasoning on the 1" inch burner was I know they're good burners and living in the Uk shipping costs of the burners I've heard about was insane, and those burners are available in 1" and 1/2" sizes over here so there wasn't silly amounts of shipping on top.
  2. I've watched a good chunk of his videos, the idea was to have a scaled down version of his that would work with just the 1 burner
  3. Hi! I'm a reenactor who has decided to build their first forge. I've done a bit of work on coal but for working at home I decided that gas would be the much easier choice. I read the thread on Forge 101 and it warned about not starting too big but now I'm worried as to what you guys consider "too big". The size of what I've drawn up (diagram below) is based on the size of the things I need to be producing for reenactment (mostly larger axe heads) but please let me know if you think I've been too ambitious. The burner I'm planning to use is the 1" gameco bkit3 burner. All sides of the steel box in the diagram will be lined with 2 inches of kaowool and one inch of refactory cement. And it will stand on a base of the same. This gives an internal size of 10" x 10" x 5". If anyone can see any problems with this I'd love to hear them and I will adapt the design accordingly because I want to get this right. Many thanks Ruby
