  1. I amb shoure that on combination with a forced air burner, a ribbon burner would make the gas forge gain a much greater efficiency. As It It will mix the air and the propane (or any other gas fuel) inside of the precombustion chamber, therefore, virtualy all fuel molècules (C3H8 for propane) would react with all O2 molecules present n the mixture. Where as with a normal tip blower, the mixing is not as efficent and productes a greater noise and poorer flames. And also, I agree with the emmergency thing. I have a huge gas forge 6500inch cubed, and i have four ball balbes all the way through the hose to the gas tanck. This way I can quickly acces any valve even if I amb at my worck bench! It might be a litle oberkill but... Despite this, the more joins on the hose the more risck due to leacks there is, so I check for leacks with soapy watter on a regular bases.
  2. Hi, I would like to know if anyone has experience on selling knives in Catalunya, Spain, but if you have any it would be really helpful. and just to give a bit of background, I'm a 15-year-old blacksmith who hasn't got much experience on this ambit, just for 9 months or so, although I do have a lot of experience on arc welding and with the angle grinder. Now I'm waiting to have more experience and to finish my studies to be fully dedicated to blacksmithing. Despite this, I would like to produce small camping knives and sell them on little village markets, as there is a very large tradition of handmade stuff market here in Catalunya. Also, I have a coal (coke) forge which I made my self which really doesn't work well, although just fine for knife making. Still aiming to build My self a better one.
