[TheForge] propane forge burner book

Sun Feb 29 09:44:01 2004

My forge is nothing new.  I have been using it for about 15 years now.  It
is a barrel forge 24" long on its side with two combination forced air and
atmospheric air burners.  The barrel is lined with B density FiberFrax as a
liner and castable on the floor to catch the flux.  I use a sheet of wax
paper to separate the liner from the castable when I am placing the castible
on top of the liner in the bottom of the forge.  This allows me to change
the castable, when it gets bad, without damaging the liner.
The forge maintains a temperature of around 2800 F which is great for my
Damascus.  I weld on the average of 4 to 5 hrs. each day.
