Hi Matt. I bought the forge from a private seller. They are made by a company at flamefast.co.uk and used mainly in schools and training centres. Mine uses propane and air from a blower built into the unit. Some are fueled by natural gas. There is little or no fume from the chips as they are inert. However impurities in the forge such as slag or other foreign materials may cause fumes. I operate the forge near an open door to avoid carbon monoxide build up in the workshop. The forge will melt 25mm bar but the working area is quite small compared with a coke forge. I hope this helps. Regards John
Dear John Congratulations to the fire what he did. I would like to build similar. I would like to ask him whether I get more information? I have not found a description of it on the net. Thank you, Finta Miklós
