Thank you Brian, I appreciate it. It's good to have backup.

Frosty The Lucky.

First post here…. Thanks for sharing all this knowledge.

Here’s some pictures of my forge- about 300 cubic inches, and burner build- 3/4” T burner.

Good Morning Yo,

Welcome!! Normally Frosty would have commented already, but he passed away suddenly.

Is the Forge open on the other end? You can make a ledge and doors (to adjust the opening, depending on what size material you are heating), with fire Brick. You get more heat by restricting the top of the opening.

You can adjust the burner by adjusting the gas nozzle tip position/depth. You can play with different Pressures at your Regulator and by adding or restricting the Air Inputs. You have a good starting point.

Thanks Neil. I did read earlier this year about Frosty’s passing.

I do use firebricks to cover the openings, but nothing permanent yet. I just slide a couple side by side in front, and a half brick to cover the small opening in the back. I’m still trying to fine tune this thing as best as I can.

Good Morning, Yo,

Use a couple short brick on each side of the front opening, lay a longer brick across the top. This closes the top and leaves the bottom open. You can use another short on the bottom for a Rest (something to rest your work on, not the Floor). You NEED a CHIMNEY to let the Exhaust out, adjust the back opening for this, If you have too much Dragon Breathe, open up the back to release some pressure.

Super bummed to hear of Frosty’s passing. But I appreciate you sharing. Life has pulled me in other directions and I haven’t quite finished my post vice refurbishment. Frosty was always spot on and incredibly kind. I also downloaded this burner guide and hope to build it. Thank you. Much appreciated.
