Thanks Rich:

If it takes me a long time to reply I'm not ignoring anybody, I'm bussier
than a one legged paper hanger in a room full of long tailed rocking chairs.
(I apologize if you don't get any of that Rich, it's a mish mash of american
(I think?) sayings)) <grin>

Anyway, I think I have a handle on how a chip forge works so getting somes
working details will greatly streamline my endeavors at making one myself. I
don't know if I'll like a chip forge better than my "regular" propane forges
but I'm always up for trying something different.

I haven't gotten to the pics you posted of the forge's inner workings yet
but will hopefully this evening.

Thanks again.

Frosty

it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
