  1. Hey folks I have located an old rusty forge and was wandering if it might be worth refurbishing. It looks to be home made, what I took to be a firepot looks like a piece of 4 to 6 inch pipe ,it has a blower attatched that has a pulley on it like it had an elect motor to run it. There is some spots rusted out,and still has some cement in the bottom, but all moveable components are rusted up and wiil not move. what do ou all think?

  2. Hi folks, I have an old propane bbq that I was going to make into a forge. I work for a shortline railroad and have access to used firebricks that came out of a glass furnace. some still have a little glass on them. what would this do in a forge when used for the floor and perhaps for firepot extenion? Thanks in advance

  3. Hey everyone i'm in the process of gathering up the stuff to build my first forge so please pay me no mind if I ask goofy questions or just sulk in the background soaking up as much info as possible. I remember playing in my greatgrandfather's smithy as a young child.now trying to start my own thanks in advance for all tips grandpafischer
