I've been searching for a complete forced air ribbon burner forge and can't seem to find anything on the market. I don't have time to build my own. 

Any suggestions?

Here in CO at 8200' my venturi burners are not getting hot enough. Does anyone know of a forced air / ribbon burner forge for sale? I don't have time to build one and can't seem to find a company that makes one.

Thanks everyone for your feedback. It was in fact burrs on the edge of the tube, good call.

Hey all,

Ive tried cleaning all lines, adjusting alignment and just about everything else, but I can't seem to get just one burner to run properly. Any ideas? Also this forge worked fine with one burner for over a year, now all of a sudden this: Video:https://photos.app.goo.gl/Nh38ac73VSaLSNYL8

Hey all,

I have been hand tapping #8-32 blind holes into railroad spike heads for knobs. It takes forever, taps break, and it's hard on the hand. I'm looking for a more efficient way to tap blind holes about 1/2" deep. Any ideas, tool recommendations are greatly appreciated!

Hello all, 

I'm at the point where I want to hire a set of extra hands, but I'm worried about liability. I am a full time blacksmith, but I work out of my garage, have not registered as a business, and primarily sell on Etsy and word of mouth. 

I have a friend who I want to pay cash under the table, but I want to protect myself if he were to get injured. 

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance,

Nathaniel
