[TheForge] Fire Pot

[Ron Childers]

Not if it's the same thickness. Also, it isn't as likely to crack and would
be easy to repair if it gets a hole burned in it.

I bought a firepot at an auction in Wisconsin probably back in the mid 
'70s. The former owner was at the sale with a little chihuahua that he 
carried inside his jacket. He said the chihuahua was good for his 
asthma. The firepot was a Champion I think and had a 2" hole burned 
thru the side of it. The hole had been patched with furnace cement and 
held together for quite a while. I think I paid $2 for it. The only 
bid. No idea what I ever did with it. I bought a Centaur Vulcan that I 
have today.
