If I can copy my blower mount, it would make sense to have two forges (one for small work, the other for larger projects). I've got a pile of leftover bricks (including some firebrick), so I probably need to get a book on building a small cupola (next year - the forge and anvil will definitely use up most of my free time until we get some clear weather in the spring).:) Paul Stevens william thomas powers 00:00. Then I can redo my clay modifications in steel, make some stronger legs. I'll lose an inch or so in diameter, but double the depth of the hearth. When I get the bugs worked out, I'll probably look at removing the heavy gauge sheetmetal hearth and putting on the brakedrum I got from a semi at the junkyard. I am going to find time to work on it later this week (I need a break from the insanity) and hope to fire it up again this weekend. Before I could try any more clay modifications, we got a few days of rain (I don't have a hood and flue yet, so I work outside), then I suddenly had to redo some of the plumbing in my parents house (I'm still trying to finish the plumbing in my house), then work picked up.
