September 10, 200817 yr Author Hi Rob and welder, Thanks for your welcome, I look forward to having more time on my hands (Ha Ha Ha!) to get deeper into the forums and info. Once I'm onto forge-build I will certainly start asking. Thanks again Pat
September 10, 200817 yr A good Tuyere can be made from 2'' pipe about 6-8'' long with a 2'' pipe T-welded into it for the connection of the blower, You can also use a 2'' pipe T fitting with some pipe screwed in to allow the blower to connect. The blueprints section has very good drawings on how to make many different types of forges, the only part I still need is the ... blower! Wish I had room for a bellows!
