SnailForge Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 This is how I built my setup. http://onikudaki.be/content/54-building-forge It works very well. recently I modified it a bit and opened the back so that I could work on longer pieces. It gets hot enough for forge welding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 A variation on the lively washtub forge. I like to see folks building their own forges instead of complaining that they can't forge because they can't afford to buy a forge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnailForge Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 Building a forge is dirt cheap and dead easy. Especially since it can all be made of scrap. All you need is some sort of lining to keep in the heat, and a hole through which to blow air. Besides, I prefer charcoal to gas. I hate the idea of a forge fire right next to a propane tank.
