  1. Looking for local individuals that have built a forge with propane, build coal forge, built power hammer and press. Would like to talk on phone & depending a visit to their shop.

    I have built/rebuild several propane forges and can make knifes & shape metal. I have failed EVERY time when attempting to forge multiple layers of various steels. From truck springs, rebar, lawn mower blade indicating carbon content, black pipe, files, etc.. with borax. I was told by elderly smith that propane will not reach temp required to weld together. I see the metal is white hot yet he said not likely.

    Considering lump coal  for new forge I want to build. I have truck break drum I plan to use. HELP!
