      @@HouseMadeUS I looked at the same or similar unit on amazon to use for my blast cabinet........turns out I was able to get the skat blast vibrating unit going again on my cabinet, but the one you have seems easy to get and it comes in different sizes. Great videos! I haven't tried forging yet, but I recently got my great great grandfather's anvil. With body issues, that hydraulic forging press looks like the ticket, but I need to focus on getting my powder coating to a better quality........my Revolution grinder is in the raw just waiting for the colors (already on hand) I will powder coat it with.

    Hey Brian, if you have the time please do a review on the Fireball Table. I have 1 Lg. & 2 Sm. tables as well as all of the stuff to go with it on my TO ORDER LIST when we get settled in our new home. It sure would be great to hear an honest opinion from someone else I trust. I think Jason from Fireball & his tools are phenomenal!

    Seems like the rear door of the forge is one piece so it wouldn't be able to open as wide as the front. It would be nice if there was an option to be able to have the same two-piece setup on both front and rear of the forge so if I'm regularly working on longer and wider pieces I'll have the ability to use the full width of the forge, but I can still close it up for working with smaller pieces. I really like the design though

    • @HouseMadeUS
      @HouseMadeUS  Рік тому +2

      Good point. We can make that an option to have 4 1/2 doors instead of 2 1/2 doors and a full rear door.

    The first time I saw your forge doors, I'd copy them
    My forge is almost done, and I started it months back. I've haven't seen yours until now. Yours is much like mine, and ours isn't like others
    I've cast A Lite also and 2 inches wool on the rest, but 2
    5 inches wool on top
    I've mounted my ribbon burner, I pointing upwards for circulation.

    What about a rounded top inside the forge so the heat ‘swirls’ - maybe I missed that… was it considered? The Apollo seems to reach forge welding temps without that design feature and I’m sure it’s easier to make square it off… Just curious if it wouldn’t maybe distribute the heat more evenly…?
    Love the doors!

    • @HouseMadeUS
      @HouseMadeUS  Рік тому +1

      Actually I was quite surprised when I saw the swirls with the square interior. The reason why I went away from the rounded ceiling is because that would have to be poured. With this design you just lay the bricks inside and on top and there's nothing to pour or let cure. Thanks for watching and supporting my work!

    Good morning bro, quick question: when you say 20% by weight does this mean 20% castolite to 80% water by weight? For example, 20g castolite to 80g water? I make sourdough using weight rather than volume in this manner, so I'm assuming that's what you mean, but, as the venerable great Benny Hill so eloquently illustrated long ago on late night television, we all know that to assume makes an "ASS out of U and ME!" I dig how you your lighting bolts light up when the forge is lit, nice touch. I want to do something of the sort when I design and fabricate mine. I'll be heading down to my shop soon to pick up where I left off... happy Saturday!
