[TheForge] GAS FORGE QUESTION

[Michael H. Murphy]

I tend to run atmospheric rather than blown forges, but both can have
problems running at low pressure/temperature.  If the flow of air and fuel
gets too slow, it can start burning up inside the pipe rather than at the
burner mouth.  Does this tend to happen when you're running at low speed?
