I Forge Iron

It needs to hold the fuel, provide air to raise heat levels during combustion, and not burn up too fast itself. If you read through this section of the forum, you should find plenty of answers here.

Look for the pages tab at the top of the forum, click on it then click on pages again. Look for BP0133 the now famous 55 Forge.

Patrick, I have a 55 Forge with a brake drum for a fire pot. It works great.

Some years ago I took an introductory course on blacksmithing and the text for the course was "A blacksmithing Primer" by Randy McDaniel. In the back of the book were plans a forge table, fire box and tuyere. I followed those plans(sort of) and am still using the same setup. There are lots of similar instructions all over the internet and here in the blueprints. It isn't difficult but you need the right tools and skills.
