My New Forge!

2008.08.20








I have been planning on making a forge for a while now and I finally did it! I put a big dutch oven on top of a propane tank that I cut in half. Then I piped air into the half propane tank. The bottom of the dutch oven has a bunch of holes drilled in the bottom of it. Then a leaf blower is attached to the end of the pipe and blows up through the little holes. It works perfectly!! I decided to make something so I flattened a file, a piece of rebar, and smoothed out the sides of a railroad spike. The file is the blade, the rebar is the hilt, and the railroad spike is the handle. There will probably be more posts like this because I'm really excited about my new hobby!

Amethyst You're crazy, LOL! Looks like fun though. And certainly produces some great results when combined with your other hobby ;)
