Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 It depended upon which forge/tuyere. Might want to look through this catalog to see if your forge is listed there. https://ia903103.us.archive.org/14/items/BuffaloForgeCoCatalogNo801/Buffalo Forge Co Catalog No 801_text.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Yes that's very much like "What size tires did Ford use on their vehicles?" type of question. I generally use flexible exhaust tubing to get from my hand crank blower to the forge, getting harder to find these days so I grab it when I find some in good shape at the scrapyard. Some forge blowers bolt to the tuyere , others have a slip in bracket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckman903 Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 Thanks Irondragon that catalog is just what I needed it doesn't show the connection but I now know that its a 36 H with a 700 blower and a Vulcan tuyere .I'm going to be selling it, can't do anymore smithing fun while it lasted (had my hammering shoulder replaced and doctor said no banging or pounding).
