November 8, 20187 yr Hello Everyone, I am new to forging and am looking to either buy or build a propane forge. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
November 8, 20187 yr sections here gas forges 101 and burners 101. In the FB page Blacksmithing for beginners is a files section that has a scholarly build of a gas forge that is pretty good except for a couple things we could discuss after you read it. If you are up for the build, I'd say you can build a better forge than typically comes from most makers for far less. I think I have about 240 in mine. good luck. Good to post your location in your profile.
November 8, 20187 yr Hi, Mike. Are you here in Alaska? PM me and we can talk if you are. If so you just missed our Group Build on Gas forges, but we could help with plans for you and sourcing parts locally.
November 8, 20187 yr How can we point you in the right direction when we don't know where you are? 100+ countries participate here and what may be easy to source in Australia might be hard and expensive to source in Iceland, (and yes we have members both places...) If you were only in the USA we could point you at a set of instructions and a source for refractories provided by a member.
