hill.josh Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 I'm building my first coal/charcoal forge and wanted to know how i should line it? i read the other forum posts about the fireplace mix and sawdust/clay mix but figured if i knew more it wouldn't hurt. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerkid Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 That all depends on the thickness of your firepot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hill.josh Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Its 1/2in. But i was thinking about not using one and just building up a "firepot" with whatever insulation since the iron firepot would suck up alot of heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
