Build Your Own Gas Forge with These Plans! Save
Money! and Gain the Knowleged to Fix any Problems?
With
this Gas Forge Construction Manual
Ebook You
Can! By David
Robertson

My name is David Robertson and I
have been smithing for over 20 years now. In this time I have made
numerous propane gas forges and always tinkering with the design, trying
to improve economics and ease of construction.
In 2006 I recorded
my Gas Forge Construction dvd . This dvd gives detailed construction of
an atmospheric pipe propane gas forge. An atmospheric forge requires no
electricity and relies on a venturi effect. The video has been a
successful seller.
I always felt a little awkward learning from
video. For some things such as seeing and hearing hammering techniques it
is very valuable, but I also see the benefit in having a manual or a set
of plans that I can print off pages and refer to.
So now I have
written The Gas Forge Construction
Manual. This downloadable ebook details step by step gas
forge plans for construction of two propane gas forges for blacksmiths and
knifemakers. The first is the atmospheric pipe forge described in the dvd.
The second is a blower driven box forge with a radically different
construction.
As a Blacksmith ForgeThe propane forges described are both
suitable for blacksmithing work. As a blacksmith forge the atmospheric
forge is a good starter gas forge. Interior size is 12 inches long and 6
inches wide 6 inches high. You can do a lot of heating of metal in this
size of space but you do get creative in figuring out how to put odd
shaped steel in the forge chamber.
The blower box propane gas forge
is more versatile, but a little less thermally effeceint. I use a
prototype of this style of forge as my main production forge. It allows me
to open the side and put a very complex shaped bar in for heating. This
versatility is what attacted me to the design.
As a Knifemakers ForgeThe pipe forge works very well as a
knifemakers forge as you are making long straight shapes. The extra
insulation also makes it easier to gas forge weld.
The Blower Box
forge can be used for knifemaking as well. You will be able to forge weld
in it as well but you must be more skilled at forge welding in this style
of forge. It will take practice.

Other Uses of The Gas Forge PlansWith a little adaptation either
of the propane gas forges described will melt bronze,
brass, copper,or silver for casting. You may become skilled with
its use and be able to braze with it, or created Mokume (fused patterned
copper and brass).
It really is my primary heat source, oh yes the
gas forge also helps to heat the shop in the winter!

p.s. I have been using variations
of these forges for over 10 years now and have had great success with
them. Relatively easy to build with minimal skills of welding,
drilling and cutting steel. Low cost with all the parts costing about
$200.00 new. If you are good at scroungeing cost can be much
less.
Good Smithing!
