CRAFTBENDER Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 Here is a shot of my burner choke and slots. I bought Michael book and the new propane bottle about two years ago and after a visit to birdogforge owned by Bruce Godlesky, I got busy and built my burner and forge. I have a lot to learn yet. I think the next thing I need to do is some tongs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 HOT glowy forge! Always a good sight. Nice job Riley. Have you heated anything in it yet? Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAFTBENDER Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Thanks for the nice comments. Bruce has seen it first hand and we cranked it up and Bruce did a forge weld. I burned up a tank of propane messing with it, and forge welded a billet from some steel cable I got from Bruce Godlesky. Made some scrolls and a leaf. Heating hammering and learning.

CRAFTBENDER Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Sounds like you have a really nice forge. Hope to see some of your work. Here are some pieces that were'nt total disasters. The leaf was made from a piece of 1/4x1/2 hot rolled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
