July 31, 20205 yr Author sorry frosty I had to do some work so I wasn't able to finish posting every thing the forge proper= about 5x7x18" inside with 1" refractory wool and 3 layers of a 5000F rated refractory coating. on the outside is 1/8 sheet steel will try to post a pic later it dosent want to load right now
July 31, 20205 yr Author heres the pic of it running. I have no regulator in the line so my flame slowly weakens till I swap to a full bottle again I tried with a regulator but didn't get enough pressure can you give me an idea to fix this im adjusting the t-valve every 5 min it seams to keep the flame the same
July 31, 20205 yr Regulators are rated for the pressure they will deal with. If you used a standard gas grill regulator it will only let WAY LESS pressure than you need through. I suggest a 0-30 psi regulator. What was the regulator you were using rated for? (I've seen someone try to use a household gas system that was rated at 1.5" of water column; when what they needed was more like 20 FEET of water column! 14.7 psi being about 32 feet of water column...)
