stovestoker Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 We have had a burn ban on. The wind is blowing all the time. The rule is you can only have a fire in a pit or grill. No burn ban means no open fires weed burning or trash burning. Well I figure my forge is ok but I'm not a moron either( my wife might argue that one). Things are starting to green up and this morning it was dead calm so my son and I went for it. It was his first forge fire ever and the first fire in our new little cast iron forge. His first words when he saw the steel glowing orange was" that steel is beautiful when it comes out of the fire". we are both hooked big time. we made a small coal rake but had some issues with the size of the forge and long stock. Anyway here is a pic, he doesn't show it because he was taking the whole thing pretty serious, but he was pretty stoked. we are hoping tomorrow morning is the same as today.
