medieval Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I am having trouble finding an electric forge blower for a ribbon forge. Grant Sarver (RIP) was selling them (I believe that there were two sizes) but he's not around to help. I have Googled, and gone to the blacksmith supply websites (Blacksmith Depot, Peih tools, Centaur forge, etc). I don't want to buy blowers to experiment with. My forge dims are: 10" high x 12" wide x 18" long. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpearson Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 the 112& 164cfm blowers at blacksmiths depot are the ones grant talked about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
territorialmillworks Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 With the dimensions of your forge, I doubt that any squirrel cage blower will give you the static pressure that you will need. I use an Eclipse impeller type blower with 2.8 WC which supplies a 4.5" X 9" burner. This blower is similar to the one offered by Pine Ridge Burners. Their website has a lot of good info/guide lines and they sell the following:164 CFM @ 2.5" WC Static PressurePower cord, switch, and intake damper includedPrice $220.00Give them a call. They were very helpful when I was building my forge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
