Steve Sells Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Welcome to I Forge Iron, Ft Wayne here, in your control panel you should at least tag yourself being from Indiana, if not adding your city as well, there are many members here and some may be very close and be able to give you hand on help in your or their shops.

Frosty Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Welcome aboard Zack, glad to have ya. You'll find plenty of forge plans in the Blueprints section. There's more useful info in the "Getting started and Lessons" sections. The short answer though is yes, a charcoal forge can be very easy to make.
