DUNSTAN Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 In the event of looking for a smaller forge than the first one that I built 8 years ago, that wasn't the greatest, used a semi brake drum...I know now...too big. Smaller is better, so when we had to replace the brake rotors on the service trucks at work, it looked like the right size. This what I through together, smaller, portable,and uses less coal. repaceable bottom. take down. works well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Looks pretty good. How are you supplying the blast? Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUNSTAN Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Thanks, for now I'm using my shop vac, but I have a small fan that will work well, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Browne Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 Looks really great. One point though for your next one. If you are going to use your forge in different areas where the ground can be uneven think of a tripod instead of four legs. A tripod will never rock and will be steady under all conditions.
