At the historic site where I work we have a Centaur Forge Vulcan fire
pot=20
installed in a brick forge.  It is used daily for 6mos of the year, and
not=20
just so the folks can see a fire in it either.  it was installed 10
years=20
ago and is still in great shape.

The Vulcan is square/rectangular.  My personal forge has a round
farriers=20
firepot.  No, I'm not a farrier.  I just like the round pot ... it's
simply=20
a personal preference.

If you are really worried about it burning out, get one rated for coke
as=20
they are thicker.

Laurel Machine and Foundry supposedly has very good firepots also.  I'm
not=20
sure if they have a web site or not, and I don't have their address.
