Make A Forge

Make A Forge Empty Make A Forge

Post by assassin Wed May 30, 2018 2:27 am

Making a forge is very easy for someone with basic fabrication skills or basic tools and these are one of the most basic tools you can get for an off gridder or just someone looking to do more for themselves, a forge can be large or small or maybe somewhere in between, they can be fired with gases such as propane, fired with coke, fired with coal, or even fired with timber you have collected, and with timber you do have to add more fuel more often, but hey its free so why worry.

All forges work on the same principal and that is that either a gas is injected into an enclosure with an opening for air to enter using a venturi effect, or you use a solid fuel and ignite it and blow air into it to increase its temperature where it is hot enough to melt metals, not just sufficiently to work them, and with a small forge you can begin blacksmithing at home and improve your skills to the point where you can make many tools or other items, but learning these skills takes time in both the theory and the practical side and the only way to improve your practical skills is to work at blacksmithing. You can recycle so many things with a forge, I recently took an ols leaf spring or two and turned them into hand axes complete with hardening and tempering and they are better than the mass produced commercial items; you can melt aluminium (aliminum if you are American) cans down into ingots, or you can cast other metals into shapes or even blanks for other projects.
