Forge
Work by Wlliam
Ilgen
copyright 1912
This is a 236
page ebook
written in 1912
as a course of
study for manual
training in
highschool. The
book
concentrates on
forgeing
practices,
skills and
tools. It is
very much a how
to book. The
second half of
the book is
dedicated to the
steel making
industry at this
time. Although
dated there is
much useful
information in
the book. A word
of caution some
of the
descriptions can
be misleading
from a modern
perspective (eg
naming of the
colors of
steel). Please
use the
information with
care. We have
learned alot
about the
dangers in this
craft that were
not important in
1912.
The book has
been scanned in
page by page so
you will find
blank pages etc.
It is in pdf
format so you
will need Adobe
reader to view
it. The file is
22 Mb. On dial
up it takes
close to 2 hours
to download. On
highspeed it
takes perhaps 5
minutes. Click
on either the
Buy Now button
or the Members

Variable
Speed Knife 2 x 72
Belt Grinder /
Sander
  This is a
work horse for the
serious knife maker.
The variable speed
allows you to work
effectively on softer
materials such as
wood, bone, and
plastics for handle
material. Slow belts
speeds prevent
burning, or melting of
the softer materials.
Higher speeds for
moving the metal the
fastest. The 2 inch by
72 inch belt is the
standard for Knife
Making and allows the
purchase of many off
the shelf high quality
belts. 220 volts.
Item
14
Kalamazoo 2 x 48 Knife Makers Belt Sander
  This is
the more economical
belt sander for
knife making if you
are just getting
started. It is 110
volt instead of the
220 volts in the
above Belt Grinder.
You can find a
reasonable
assortment of grit
sizes. A compact
sturdy tool. 1/2 hp
single phase.
Item 15
Build Your
Own
Workshop
Plans $47.00
A number of years
back I built a 20 x
20 addition on the
back of my previous
workshop. I
basically just went
from a plan in my
head.  Blacksmith
right,
handy, able to
figure things out on
the fly. Well it
worked but it would
have been a whole
lot easier if I had
some plans to
follow.
If you have taken up
blacksmithing and
find that you need a
structure from shed
size to a 50 by 60
foot building for a
large shop this
ebook has 1200
different plans for
you to work from. If
you are building a
structure take a few
moments and see what
Ryan Henderson has
to offer in his

Item
16 a,b,c,d
These Items are often
purchased together
       
The
stainless steel hose
and regulator are
1/4 inch npt ports.
You will have to buy
two 1/4 inch by 2
inch long, npt black
pipe nipples to
attach to your forge
at your local
hardware store. Use
good propane rated
pipe dope or propane
rated T-tape. I have
been using this
style of regulator
on my forges for
over 30 years. It is
robust and designed
for industrial use.
You can control the
pressure precisely
giving you
repeatable forge
temperatures. Very
important when forge
welding or heat
treating knives.
Just click on the
images for details.
Item
17 a
US Solid 15 Kw
Induction Forge
 
For Details just
click on the above
image.
This is the
standard induction
forge that
blacksmiths have
been using
recently. If you
are tired of
lugging in propane
tanks or bags of
coal this may be
an option for you.
Running off 220
volts and 40 to 70
amps it is almost
as simple as
plugging in and
adding a cooling
system and you are
ready to forge. A
win for the
environment as you
are not using any
fossil fuels, just
electricity.
The big bonus is
in the efficiency
of use as the
steel heats much
faster than using
conventional
forges. More
hammering time.
You are limited by
the size of the
coil to what size
and shape of steel
you can heat.
Great for
production work.
Also in the summer
there is almost no
radiant heat off
the machine, just
the hot bar you
are working on.
For blacksmiths
like working in
air conditioned
comfort!
Derek Melton has a
very good article
on his induction
forge and it is
worth reading
before you buy
one. Click here for
Derek Melton
Forge Article
He does discuss
the US solid forge
a bit.
Item
17 b
US Solid 25 L TIG Cooler
 
For details just click on
the above image
The matched TIG water cooler for the above
induction forge. The induction forge requires
constant cool water circulating through the
coils. There are several ways of doing this,
but the most self contained is using a cooling
system similar to the TIG cooler.

Tongs are a vital
tool for the

You can make your

little cost. This

different styles
of Tongs in

Item19
Shade
3 Clip on IR and UV Filters Safety glasses
   
These
are an economical
Clip On Safety
filter
glasses
that will fit most
perscription and
clear safety
glasses.
Suitable
for high
temperature
forge work
such as forge
welding. Although
there is a color
shift with the
green tint I found
it was pretty
quick getting use
to the new color
range. I find them
much cooler on the
eyes than my usual
rose didymium. I
recommend using
them for all
your forge
work.
Just
click on the image
above for pricing
information, or to
purchase. These
are a very
economical
solution for
protection in the
blacksmith shop.
Item 20
Dayton High
Temperature Blower, 115 Volt,
130 CFM
This blower puts out
adequate cfm for the gas forges
described in my Gas Forge
Construction Manual (item 1 above)
It also has a separate cooling fan
to help prolong the life of the
motor. It has a mounting flange
but you will have to construct a
receiving flange and possibly a
mounting bracket.
Item
21
Grizzly Knife Belt Sander /
Buffer
The
Grizzly Belt Sander is one of the
lowest cost 2 inch by 72 inch belt
sanders on the market. I had
opportunity to try one out when I
was at New York State Designer
Blacksmiths meeting. It ran almost
silently and had a very smooth
operation. It takes a bit to get
the tracking just right but after,
it is easy to use.
I built my belt sander years
ago and looking back I would have
been much further ahead to buy
this tool if I had known about it.
The only advantage with the one I
built is that it has a 1.5 HP
motor.
Item 23
Smith
Soldering
Brazing Gas Saver Cutting Torch WDW101 Acetylene
If you do a lot of
torch work this Gas Saver will pay for itself
in saved fuel and oxygen many times over. It
is designed to shut off the flow of fuel and
oxygen when you hang the torch up on the
hook. There is a pilot light that
allows quick ignition with keeping the same
settings just by lifting the torch then moving the
nozel to the pilot light. Then you are back into
business. Very useful in operations
requiring a lot of moving and adjustments then
repeated heating.
Item 24
Smith
Flashback
Arrestors Cutting Torch Mount Set H743
An ounce of prevention is worth a lb of
cure!. These flashback arrestors prevent a torch
blowing up if there is a plugged tip and
combustion starts inside an heads back to the
hoses. I have had a torch that started inertanl
combustion. Very scary and very hot in the hand. I
have seen a torch that blew up from the
gasses being forced back. Fortunately I was not
holding it. These two units mount on the torch
body on the acetelyne line and the oxygen line.
Item 25
Peddinghaus 77
lbs Anvil
  Peddinghaus makes excellent
quality tools. This 77 lb anvil is ideal for
starting out in blacksmithing. If you are
interested in Knife Making it may be all the anvil
you ever need. Make sure you mount it well on a
stump or stand as this can effectively add to the
mass of the anvil if it is well secured.
Item 26
Peddinghaus
275 lbs Blacksmith Anvil
  This
is
a heavy duty anvil for the most demanding shop. If
you are looking at architechtural work or
sculptural work this would be an ideal anvil.
Larger mass means you can effectively work larger
bar sizes. Small items such as knives can be
worked easily on a big anvil especially with the
flat horn.
Item 27
Sweddish
Pattern Cross Peen blacksmith hammer 2 lbs (990 g)
  This
is
an excellent hammer for blacksmithing or blade
smithing. Wood handle for the flexibility of
carving it to fit your own hand. This size of
hammer I use in the shop for general detail work.
Lots of reach on the cross peen.
Item 28
Sweddish
Pattern Cross Peen blacksmith hammer 3.3 lbs (1500
g)
  Same
pattern as above but with an extra 1.3 lb of
weight for serious moving of hot metal.
Item
29
 
Just click on the image above for details.
This is a high temperature infrared thermometer.
It will reach well above the quench temperature of
most blade steels. It will also work in casting
applications as well. I bought this for heat
treating S35VN stainless steel and have been quite
pleased with the operation. I do find the laser
beam is a touch off targeting. I would practice
with mild steel to make sure your targeting is
accurate. Blades are pretty small and you want to
make sure you are reading the right area.
2732 Deg F is well above the melting point of
steel. You could use this for checking forge
welding temps although I have not done this yet.
