Karl von Wald Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 So my two burner Hells Forge arrived yesterday. I plan on assembling and lining it on Thursday so I will be ready to play with for this weekend. Any tips or tricks I should know about with this forge? Either for set up or general use. I do have some extra fire brick I can use to make "doors" so I don't lose excess heat. But that is about the limit of my knowledge. Also this is my first forge beyond playing with a weed burner.

Daswulf Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I have one of them. It seems to work well but I mainly stick to my coal forge so I don't have a lot of time in using it. It would benefit from an extended prop to hold longer stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl von Wald Posted August 12, 2022 Author Share Posted August 12, 2022 So last night I got it assembled. It only took... maybe five minutes. Very easy to do. Then I took it outside and applied the refractory. Again simple and painless. My only complaint is how anticlimactic it is to get something ready to go then have to wait 24 hours for it to dry...

ThomasPowers Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Funny, I had to wait 9 months per child, paying off our mortgage took 15 years. 24 hours doesn't seem like very long... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles R. Stevens Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Kids… … Apocalyptic! if I knew how big a PITA they are I would have eaten them when they were young! At least that’s what the grandkids think ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 That's one of the best things about raising goats, if one of the kids gets to be too big a PITA you can sell or eat it without getting in trouble. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
