I used fire brick in my coal forge and after one use, the bottom of the bricks were "melting". I wasn't using flux, so I'm curious, did it get too hot or does fire brick not stand up to direct contact with coal?
Haha I bought it in the states. And I can't find any discernable numbers or lettering. There are spots that I think there was something but I just can't tell.
Hello Everyone!
So like most novices on this site, I'm looking for help identifying an old anvil I picked up for my first forge setup. The sides have been marked up badly so I can't make out any writing and I am hoping someone can identify by shape alone. Let me know if you need any more photos. I should note it is approximately 200 lb.
Thanks!
Matt
