Kevin Colwell Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Hello Everyone, My 15-year-old kid and I built a forge. It doesn't have any IHT or ITC or the like in it yet. Still, it easily gets up to 2200F. I took pictures at 1200C (2192F). Bottle with angle iron feet Pieces to mount burner and burner tube Drilling mounting brackets Tapping mounting tubing, but will also weld nuts on to give more thread and support. Forging/swaging little shims Shims holding mounting tubes in the the right places. cutting hole for making mounting flange for blower. I have to get the blower connected to the gate valve. Welding bushing over hole, to make mounting flange for gate valve. In place over gate valve. T The stainless screws hold the wool while the rigidizer and satanite set. Inside. Kastolite 3000 floor. Notice the very complex brace for the weight of the blower. I am that sort of builder. Hitemp Tools burner, fyi. Yes, that's my car and my house. I didn't make them. First firing. After tuning. 2200F or so.

I said then and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it; while there is a criminal element, I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.” E. V.
