One reason we suggest you pack a lunch and a cold drink before each visit to the site.

Thank Wayne for us.

Welcome to IForgeIron.

Welcome aboard J, gad to have you. Please shorten all that iron pipe in the propane supply line, sticking WAY out like that makes it really easy to break off if someone trips over or drops something on the the hose. If it breaks behind the 1/4 turn ball valve you'll have to dive for the tank valve to shut it off and that may mean reaching through a fire. Try to keep the steel line as close to the forge as possible it can get hot it won't hurt a thing it's not rubber. Keeping it close means there's a lot less leverage against the fittings and you can secure it to the stand so tripping on the hose won't do anything but maybe jerk the tank around a little. I put my small tanks in a milk crate so it takes dedication to knock it over. Usually I run a 100lb. tank to prevent freeze ups and getting knocked around.

I like the solid fuel forge a lot, looks like it'd make a good BBQ too. :)

Thanks Frosty, I will reroute the pipe for sure, got a steel table to mount it on and I will run it rigid down the side then flex to the tank, also have a pressure Guage to go in line, Going to dry the Refractory tomorrow in the oven and put the I.R coating on.
