Charles R. Stevens Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 The advantage to a beginning smith (or any smith) who wants to build his own forge of starting out with a pile of dirt is its cheap, little time and easaly modified to experiment with untile you get your "perfect" forge figured out. It also is useful if one wants to hand forge/rivit components for said "perfect" forge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
