  1. All right. Thank you all! I will take this all into consideration.
  2. Hi, I am new to blacksmithing and I have a idea for a coal forge. I plan on forging steel and doing a little bit of melting down copper, brass other metals with a low melting point. Without getting bogged down by too many details, I will be using a cut-down 50 gallon drum, and my question is this: I am planning on using ceramic fiber blanket for my insulator, and will this work with coal? I will be lining the inside of the drum with it, so will I be able to use coal in this? is there something I have to do to separate the insulator from the fuel? I don't know why but I have a feeling dust from coal would be damaging to the insulator I am using. I am probably wrong but better safe than sorry.
