Page 2 of the forge in Progress.
The forge is pretty much done in thses pics. The only thing I will be adding is the metal to the shelf. What is shown is temporary. I will probably add something along each side to hold tongs as well. The final addition is that I may also add some handles and wheels so I can move it around more easily.
UPDATE: I ended up sellign this forge at the Ojai Pirate Faire the first time I took it out. I am in the process of building its replacment now. Go to the New Propane Forge Construction Page for a step by step of how that one is coming along.
Here is a full frontal shot with the front door
open. |
A shot that shows the plumbing. |
Another angled shot that shows the stock holder
sticking out also. It will slide in when not needed. |
Here it is at 10 psi. I really love this burner. I got it from http://www.hybridburners.com |
I ran this forge from 10am till 6 pm on Sat, then from 10am till 2pm on Sunday off of one 5 gal tank. It is a very efficient burner. |
I took this basic forge design from |
The other site that was a tremendous help as I tried
to figure out how to build my forge was Ron Reils site. He has done
a lot of work developing forge and burner designs. His page is at:

Here is a page with pictures of forges others have built using some ideas they got from here. They might give you some ideas as well. |
