  1. It's a standard 20lb r134a tank, roughly a foot diameter.
  2. After using a brake drum forge and a piece of rail to get acquainted with forging I have come to the conclusion that it's time to upgrade to some slightly better equipment. I lucked into a 102 lb hay Budden anvil a week or so ago and a gas forge is next on the list. I've been reading about them extensively, including many hours on IFI and have decided to do a simple Freon bottle forge with a t burner, partially because it seems to be a good simple starter forge, and partially because I have several Freon bottles and most of the burner components already at my shop. The rest of what I will need appears to be available directly from IFI and I was hoping that due to the popularity of this size forge that I could get a material list that I need to order, as those of you who have built this forge will have a good idea of the necessary quantities for the ceramic wool, castable, and kiln wash. I do have some kiln shelves for a floor and fire bricks for a porch/door.
