  1. Update, Order of operation is key! I compare it to lighting an oxyacetylene torch. Straight fuel to start and then add the air. I got a little worried when I shut it down after the first real heat and I could hear the remnants of wax for the crayons sizzling out of the burner. Overall a fun build! I'm considering adding a PID and solenoid valve for heat control.
  2. I'm having trouble tuning the flame on this new ribbon burner forge. The first time I lit it, I got a large flame coming from the door and then a boom when I adjusted the gas. Is the door possibly too small? I'm worried that I might've created a bomb.
  3. Any advice or suggestions on what to use? K type?
  4. I'm looking for recommendations on a castable refractory to line this forge. I found a source that offers satanite high aluminum mortar. Does anyone have any suggestions?
  5. Thanks for the welcome and thanks for the advice! I've been piecing together what info I can find on this. My plan was to use naturally aspirated burners with 11/4" to 3/4" bell to a 10" -3/4" black pipe as the burner body. Attached with set screws to the brass fittings above the mig tips. I feel like I should start over. Any suggestion on a link to a step by step tutorial build. I'll include my location SE Michigan, thanks for the that tip.
  6. I'm wondering what I need to coat the inside of my forge with if anything. Its built out of 2300 IFB. I'm also not sure how to add a flare end to the burner bodies as it goes down into the top. How far into the bricks should I position the bodies? I'm using 3/4" x 10" black pipe. Any other suggestions are welcome. Thanks
