  • In this video I show you the new mini forge that I bought. I got it on amazon for 150 and I really like it. I just clamped it to the anvil and got it going easily. In the video I make miniature swords out of duplex nails. These are gifts for my patrons.

    This thing is absolutley great! You can actually build something like thjs for cheaper if you have a few tools. I took a cast iron pot, drilled a pipe hole, cut a grate from a metal computer case. It was a really fun project and only really needed a drill and/or angle grinder. I hope you have a ton of fun with this thing. I love the handcrank blower :D

    I could easily be wrong, but I think your charcoal would get a lot hotter if you beat it up into half inch pieces first because they'll hold the heat better but still let air through.
