how can i make a homemade forge on the cheap?
I made one out of just clay it works great. I would say start with a weal well from a trailer with some piping it works great. I use an old furnace blower.

Building my first forge....
Yes you are going the right way with that junk. You can make a forge out of about anything as long as you have a blower or bellows. If you have the money go on eBay and get your self a good old blower the Buffalo blowers ,last for ever as long as you take care of it, also do not be afraid of rust on the blower . I made a good forge out of weal well for a boat trailer. It gets about 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit. I would suggest a coal forge use either black smith coal or anthracite coal. Start it using charcoal.

first finished rr spike hawk
I think that is awesome. It sure looks like you are having fun. some people say things like making rr spike knifes or tomahawks is terrorism, but I think it is doing a good deed to your community. They just sit there and rust. You are paying people with your taxes to go pick them up.
