Hey Jerry,
Unless the plans are copyrighted or you paid for them, how about sharing
them?  I would be really interested in seeing them.

I've used "brick pile forges" (my term) quite a bit for those hard to fit
items. As stated already they take time to warm up and can (usually) have
cold spots but work just fine.

My next propane forge however will be based on Ralph's jack lift lid design.
I have a set of the plans and they're very well put together: Good sketches,
clear pictures, good explanations and complete parts list.

How about posting a few pics to Photoaccess Ralph?

If it ain't forged
it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
