I Forge Iron

well, for some reason I'm not "authorize do" to post replies on the original post.  So..

Frank Turley,

   The farriers pattern came in several patterns.  One had half a table, one had the horn, and I don't remember what the others were.  I found a manual on this site under "Show Me Your Anvil" if I remember right.

Everything Mac,

    I'm not sure, but based on my 153 lb PW, I'd say it was 100 lb or less.

Frosty,

    Solid fuel.  I have access to wood to make my own charcoal if I feel up to that effort.  Otherwise (and more likely) I'll buy bituminous.  I'm going to use either: 1) a mower deck and brake drum; or 2) a 55 forge ( I have the 55 gal drums).

The mower deck brake drum configurations appear sound but the 55 forge is a proven design. Using the second drum for a hood is a good option especially for coal. When you've had some time with coal you won't make as much smoke but it'll still always be a factor.

Frosty The Lucky.
