I would install a hood over the gas forge to vent bad gasses and extra
heat. carbon monoxide detectors also a good idea. Keep in mind that
fire equipment should invite you to go towards the EXIT, always best
to go to the door then be trapped, that is what the fire Marshall
would tell you if you where dumb enough to invite him on your place.
Less the city knows the happier you will be. If your fellow citizens
don't gripe then you will most likely get away with it.
   Just remember that there is no such thing as being to safe. And
that if you don't go asking the city if it is all right then you may
get to do as you want. If they show up to jump up and down and yell be
polite and play dumb. Just a hobby and you know other guys that do it
at home all the time, guy I bought my anvil off of was working in his
garage in Atlanta in a very nice neighborhood. they will most likely
tell you to stop, and you can then ask about city rules Ect. that
control what you are doing.
  Also agree that buying a good forge and learning how to run it
properly is great advise. Nothing like knowing what you are doing to
keep you alive.
