Majestic forge

Featured Replies

I recently purchased a majestic 2 burner general purpose forge. Unfortunately there were no assembly instructions or start up procedures. I have called them numerous times and emailed many times without response. I was wondering if anyone has a copy of the instructions.  If so could someone email me a copy. Thanks 

If you have Facebook, I have heard they are quick to reply to messages through there.

I think there are people on this group who own these forges; since my introduction to them was reading people who were trying to revive old Majestic forges, with quite negative results, I must confess to being prejudiced against them. Nevertheless, I can think of one person on this group who likes his. He is the guy you need to talk to on this subject.

His profile page says he posted once and hasn't checked back since Jan. 10, so no telling.

Actually, I'm a lot more curious about the changes in Diamondback forges, which is the  only well know forge that has dared to improve anything in the last quarter century, while I've been watching. I have to wonder if the original guy is still around...:)

None of it sees to fit his style :D

I just looked, I don't see anything new on the Diamondback Forge site since last looked. When were we talking about them recently. Have you seen anything new? Even minor things?

Frosty The Lucky.

Just the changes that I noticed back then, Frosty:

(1) All welding has been replaced with nuts and bolts construction, which is more appropriate for fast production rates, and convenient shipping; a big plus factor.

(2) The ceramic board insulation it once came with has been replaced with ceramic wool; this downgrade is a minus factor, which is more than offset by the price reduction in the single burner forge, allowing more newbies to afford a reliable entree level forge. Then, ceramic board can replace the cheaper wool, when it is time to reline the forge.

However, their two burner forge is  ridiculously overpriced. As you know, it is only their single burner forge that I ever felt to be worth the money.

(3) No more inflammatory personal comments; the silence is golden; this change is the one that makes me suspect the company is finally under new management :rolleyes: 

Screw fastening is better for repairs and modifications. Big+

Cheaping out on the liner is always a Negative.

I've always thought they were over priced but it HAS gotten worse. Bearing in mind I've never purchased a forge so my opinion about pricing MAY:rolleyes: be skewed.

Silence has it's benefits, easier on the listener's digestion anyway. 

When I first developed the T burner there were some negative comments from commercial makers on the lists we inhabited at the time. One bad mouthed me enough it convinced other listers to try making one and next thing they were "defending" the T burner. 

That was about the time I heard your name the first time.

I just hate it when the "circumstances alters cases" rule forces me to totally go against all my favorite advice :P

First overturned advice is "do not choose a Majestic forge." I hate their design, as it creates lots of opportunities for trouble. However, it also allows the most choices for what can be heated in any given gas forge. This being a school forge...

Second favorite advice is "do not use a half break for a forge floor." However, that is exactly what I would use in a school forge, as it is cheap and fairly durable.

Finally, I generally do not think that ceramic board insulation is worth the investment, and feel ceramic wool is a better use of funds, in a first forge. However, with students, the more rugged board would make a wiser choice.

To complete the thought; cheap also means cheap to replace, if it doesn't turn out durable enough, to defend itself from students :rolleyes:
