[TheForge] Fire pot depth - opinions wanted

[Bruce Freeman]

I've successfully worked small stock (not over 3/4" thick) over pots =
ranging from 2" to 6" deep.  It's not the depth of the pot but the depth =
of the coal.  A flat table with a tuyere pipe would do fine if you piled =
the coal up high enough for the work at hand.  Put a few firebricks around =
the coal to keep it from spreading across the table and you don't need a =
pot at all.

OK folks, what is the best depth for a forge firepot.

Please support your opinions with reasons :-)
