Just a box of dirt, or a simple side blast forge
italeek replied to Charles R. Stevens's topic in JABOD - Just A Box Of Dirt
Hi, my box is 16x16" and 8" deep. The box itself is on some fire bricks so that I don't worry about burning the wood underneath. About how deep and wide should I make the fire hole? I don't want to limit myself too much on what I can forge on it so not too small. Does 4" wide 8" deep sound reasonable? Right now I'm using charcoal since that's what I can get anywhere, but I'd like to use coal or coke eventually. Thanks
