JDinOH Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 So I looked around a lot before making this and getting the frame done finally yesterday. Frosty T burner was finished some time last week. It's a start. I did a JABOD too and really only fired it up one day. It will also work fine, but I'm a work in progress for patience and knew I'd eventually get to gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey98118 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 The forge interior is orange; a very promising sign. Your next step should be a nice heat" reflecting" coating; this can be as inexpensive as Plistex, or one of the costlier homemade coatings you can find on this site. A good coating should improve your next interior photo to yellow hot; saving you lots of fuel bucks. snfand pounding time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDinOH Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 Finally got it lined with Plistix. Seems to set up fast. Are there thoughts on when it can be fired up again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnut Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 The plistix dried in my forge within twelve hours then I gave it another coat and waited 24 hrs just to be sure. Pnut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDinOH Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 Thanks Pnut. I don't think I'll get t o fire it up before Friday. Possibly tomorrow if I get off early enough. I have some tong blanks sitting at the post office - finally. Took 13 days to get from Ken's in Minnesota to my post office in Ohio. Not Ken's fault - they had them out the next day. So I might get those turned out tomorrow afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
