October 5, 20196 yr I am very very new at this, and this is the first attempt at making a forge. Will the thermalfiber I'm using work after coating in refractory cement? The fiber will withstand temps well above 2000° but I haven't seen any videos of anyone using this. Please let me know if I'm headed in the right direction. Thanks.
October 5, 20196 yr Welcome aboard, have you read this yet? READ THIS FIRST it will explain a lot of the idiosyncrasies of the forum. Neither will be very good in a well tuned forge. Refractory cement is used to stick (mortor) fire bricks together not used as a hard coat refractory. The insulating Thermalfiber may work depending on how much well above 2000° F it's rated for. I suggest reading the pinned Forges 101 thread. Also if you edit your profile to show your location, you may be surprised how many members are near you and a lot of answers require knowing where in the world you are located.
