    Just so everyone knows, that's an air to air boot ment to connect turbo boost tubes to intercoolers on diesel trucks. They are use to 30 to 50 psi at a couple hundred degrees. They can easily take the heat and pressure of a hair dryer.

    I have been bolting rotors together for pedestal grinders/polishers for years now. I can get them for free from my local tire store. Love this little forge bud. I am going to stop and get a rotor or two from the logging truck shop I used to be the head fabricator for and make a pedestal with one and a forge with the other. Love that clinker breaker. Great idea fella ! Neat build from a bunch of scrap Kevin, Well done !

      @@MyLife-lg6tg These forges really shine when the parts are the right size for smaller pieces. Briquets are an inexpensive fuel and last a good long time. I can do a 3 or 4 automotive piston melt and pour in just over an hour. Sure nothing wrong about that and it is recycling too. Win, win eh.

    Great idea for a forge! I am going to copy your idea with much thanks, but I am going to ad another brake drum with a hinge on top. so that I can add a little more coal, and also have a lid on it to increase the heat if needed.
    The top cove will have a cutout so that I can have longer items in the forge.
    Once again, thank you for the great idea.
    It just so happens there is a heavy truck garage down the road, maybe they will have a few spare old drums.

  • @C-M-E
    @C-M-E Před 2 lety +2

    I think everybody starts with a hairdryer for their first low-buck forge. I still have one that looks like it was in a housefire from my first, and it still blows air mostly out the front! Since moving up to a 'high bypass' leaf blower (😎) that can scream more air in for crucible days, my only problem is finding good diameter stainless steel that won't melt! Oddly enough, charcoal chimney-style starters are a lot more durable than you'd think for that purpose, or I lucked out and the factory that day was running Inconel, ha!
    Yes, your coupler is silicone and will handle ~800F, though as you said, as long as air is passing through and around it, you'd have to worry about the welds melting down first long before your heat ever gets way down there!
    Junkyard Forge works every time.

All the best to you. Paul.

    @potsy9973 Před 7 měsíci

    I used the outer 16" rim ring from a cube van dually truck. The portion the tire would mount to unbolts and is then the perfect size for the coals. I remember the first times I started to weld. My teacher said "when your getting a good weld it should sound just like your frying up some good greasy bacon". That is a good reference when learning to weld imo. You'll squeeze a few more cfm using hairdriers if you disable the heating coil, since the colder the air becomes the more dense it becomes, its obvious that equals a hotter forge. That's merely nit picking ISPO. But if you can use a touch more of cfm it helps to get it there. Thanks for the upload blacksmith I always find some tips that are useful.

The point is, if you want to give it a go just do it, find, beg,borrow or pilfer the materials to build and get started, you wont regret it, unless the pilfering part bites you in the arse!😂 get forging, its great fun and very addictive!
