I Forge Iron

Old Forge

As I prepare to move into my new shop, I've been considering all kinds of changes to my forge setup. I think I will be using a different forge than I have been using mainly for more than 30 years.
It was time to dismantle the old forge and clean everything up to see how everything looked.

this is a 20in. truck rim with a little round firepot(old and cast iron) bolted underneath.

There had been a fair amount of deterioration to the bottom of the forge, but mainly the pieces of plate I had welded over the wheel slots had rusted through! I had been patching the holes with scraps of metal, old bolts, and yellow clay for some time.

Surprisingly, the wheel and the firepot are in pretty good shape, and ready to be used again!

And yeah, I brought pictures.......
