jsurgeson Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Hi All Thought I would post drawings of my latest forge design, the main differences from previous designs is the change from blanket to board. The main reason for this is durability, and ease of build. It comes in a single and dual burner version, the dual is double the capacity, 4500 / 10000 cubic cm 250 / 650 cubic inch. The will both be fitted with 3/4 atmospheric hybrid style burners. Hope you like, any comments or criticisms welcome. Regards Jeff Quote
DennisG Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 very cool design. the board will need coatings, this I learned as it dries, cracks, then flakes off. can't wait for the pics and vids of it going Quote
jsurgeson Posted May 6, 2011 Author Posted May 6, 2011 DennisG: Thanks for that Just a question when you say "it cracks and flakes off" are you referring to the board or the coating flaking? If the board is this only after a while or after how much work hours? I intended to not use any coating to reduce cost and maintenance, and make the design as modular as possible to effect repairs in a few minutes. I know the benefits of the "ITC100" from my blanket designs however it is very costly in my part of the world and a pain to apply and maintain. Jeff Quote
jsurgeson Posted May 29, 2011 Author Posted May 29, 2011 Well its built, thought I would add video of how it goes together, breaks down and how the burner fits, and then forge start up and what it looks like at 1200 C. Thanks for looking. Quote
