Hoary Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Well, I'm making a tire forge and am pretty close to finishing it. I used black 1 inch piping for the tuyere with a T adaptor to allow for air blasting and ash resevoir w/ plug for easy clean out. an air matress fan is my air source and would connect nicely to the inch diameter. Inside the Tire Rim is a mixture of clay and kitty litter the fire pot is an old brake rotor. I'm thinking I would like to place the set up on top of cyderblocks in a squared U shape while digging out a pit underneath where my tuyere would protrude and pileling dirt around the cyderblocks. The set up would look like this... Ooo = Dirt N= cyderblocks I was wondering would the cyderblock blow from the heat if they held up the tire rim? ___________ |//////| ___________ NN /////NNNN O NN ////NNNNooO NN /////NNNNooooO I hope this works!
