Heatmizer Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 (edited) New to site and forging. First forge I'm making from pipe I found at scrapyard. Just a hobby knife maker. Going to make it look like a pig with wings just for fun. I've read and researched on how to build but just found this site. Open to any suggestions. Currently have 2in koa wool, one coat santinite drying now. Plan on another coat, then itc-100. Confused if I should cure refractory coating before applying itc-100 or should I do it all at once?

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Welcome aboard... have you read this yet? It will help you get the best out of the forum with tips like how to do a better search, resizing large pictures and others that will help keeping you off the moderators radar. READ THIS FIRST Instead of ITC-100, Plistix will work better, it's available here in the Gas Forge Supplies section. What type of burner(s) are you planning to use?

ThomasPowers Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I remember stumbling across the Battersea Power Station during a business trip to the UK once. I was visiting some friends of my parents and they couldn't understand why I was so enthralled to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
