Lines: 13 As there is nothing currently in the group, I wil post this in the hope that I understand the gist of its title. I am interested in what anyone might have to say about forges, especially gas forges. I am in the process of attempting the construction of a gas forge detailed in Blade magazine (dec. 1990). As my interests mainly focus on patterm welded steel, I have hopes that a gas forge will reduce oxidation and facilite welds. I would also appreciate information about blacksmithing equipement in the midwest area. Paul T.
