New forge photos
« on: September 10, 2017, 08:44:34 pm »
  This is a photo of the Forge on it's stand. You can see the acetylene regulator I fitted, the BBQ type reg restricted the gas flow to much to the home made burner which goes into the top of the forge.

  In this photo you can see the position of the Hebel blocks and the fire bricks that make up the floor.

 This is the view from the back and it shows the insulated door which when open allows me to put longer length steel through if I need to heat it in the centre and when closed helps retain the heat.

 The next 2 photos show the Forge with the front sliding doors in open and closed position. The sliding doors allow me to close them,  just leaving room for access to the heat.

These last 2 photos show my home made anvil and heavy stand, in the 2nd photo you can see the Hardy hole plus the 12mm round hole.

  I got mine from Saddingtons.  They always have damaged blocks in stock and you can pick them up very cheap or even free if your lucks in.

  Thanks Alan, I won't ask how you did that but it has made a hell of a difference.
