- I know, I know! ...you’ve been waiting ages for this. I’m sorry! But here it is, I finally received the burner from Sam.
I hope you enjoy this part of the series of my forge build.

Imagine someone looking over their fence and seeing him trying to get that bucket off lol
*slowly backs away from fence in fear*
No problem waiting this is interesting.
I have never seen this set up before.
Beautiful job
Thanks. :)
Well done, sir. One suggestion: use yellow, made for gas, Teflon tape. The white stuff will deteriorate when exposed to propane. Cheers from Whidbey Island, Washington State, USA.
"Energy saving" I'm sorry but I'm stealing that.
Free to a good home mate. 😂
Woah, a well explained science part! Wish I could say that about my fluids class! Awesome video and man is it cool to see how it comes together in real life! Excellent video.
Minhsane Thanks a lot for your comment, glad you found it helpful. :)
it is really coll to watch u,
The forced air burner is more efficient with the cap and small hole drilled on the fuel side. Will work without it and is still more efficient than venturi but the small hole gives it a bit more pressure, which leads to better mixing/efficiency.
Best forge build I've seen
Cheers Jordan! :D
Yes we used to have a lot of those stores too we have one now and I will buy whatever I can from them it cost a little bit more but you have a lot more stuff that you need in one place
Great videos thanks. Just one thing I noticed on gas it’s recommended you use PTFE for gas (yellow dispenser) not the one you’ve used.
I know where you are coming from! I have a Venturi burner forge and my water cooled credit card cannot keep up with its hunger! Forced air is the way I am going!
That's kinda reassuring that I potentially made a good call. Thanks for the feedback. :)
Hi there, nice informative and light hearted video thanks. Only One thing, no mention of a jet. Does it have one? if so how / where?
Many thanks
Glen...
Hi Glen! I'm not sure what you mean by jet. There is not one, there is just a blower and a gas input, or the venturi that is just a pressure gradient.
Hope this is some help?
@@PJTForging Hi there, yes, thanks, I get it. it doesn’t need a gas jet like the burner you decided against. just a normal gas input.
Cheers Glen...
@@whydotufaqoff yeah, standard bbq regulator on a standard propane bottle. :)
@ 20:55 mins, the metric conversion for 22mm is 22mm - no need to thank me just now (Lima Oscar Lima). Very interesting build Sir, am delighted to say that I have subscribed. Kind regards.
Touche.... toooouuuché. 🤣
I really enjoy your videos. Good job mate.
Thanks a lot mate, that's really kind of you to say. :)
This is awesome! I really want to build one similar to this. Also, 100th subscriber!
The big one, double zero! Cheers man, really cool of you to say! :D
A rectangular ribbon burner is the main benefit of a forced air system in that it provides a large, even heat within the forge. I loved this benefit when I had a chance to use one. But your elected to still use the pipe and nozzle similar to a Venturi system, thus concentrating the highest heat to one part of the forge.
Your understanding of the high Venturi system vs low pressure forced air system are a bit off the mark. The high pressure only exists in the pipe delivering fuel to the .0030 or .0035” orafice. This tiny hole raises velocity of the propane gas and drops the pressure. At the end of a full hammer-in weekend, we couldn’t feel a difference in the weight of remaining propane between the two large (100 pound) propane tanks (one supplied a ribbon burner forge while the second supplied a Venturi burner forge) by lifting each tank.
Nice vid can’t wait for part 5
Cheers! :D
Looking good mate you have been waiting for them bits for ages that would have drove me mad 😕 I have gone for the Venturi burner. My forge is complete now it’s a bit more crude than your design seems to work well though just needs a few lil tweaks here an there. When u get 5 mins check it out if u want 👍🏻
Forged in the UK
@@forgedintheuk6859 Cheers pal! :D It's getting there.
Definitely buddy it’s looking good 😊
Mate can i have the burner ur not useing🙏🙏🙏
turn on air first, then gas. You'd be a lot better off with a gate or needle valve on the gas input, as your regulator is a fixed pressure.
Like I said, I like the fast turn off in an emergency. And for the strength of the flow, the ball valve seems to work fine. :)
i'm sure it does.. i mean in addition to the turn off to fine tune the flame
How much propane does it use to forge? I'll be using normal grilling tanks
Well I've got a 13kg bottle, which I've been using for several weeks with the forced air burner, and I still have around 1/4 tank left.
@@PJTForging nice! *Runescape has me brainwashed*
other than the fact that you're a bit off on your definition of a ribbon burner ( a long rectangular block of cast refractory with holes run it's length) that was well put.. thanks for the apology(not needed) and the shout out.
I just went with what Christ Centred Ironworks said in one of his videos. :D
Why does gas/air first make a difference?
just safety... just gas allows for backflash... if the air is running the gas has nowhere to go but out
@@allyblair Noted. :)
i'm glad to be of service.. also on a side note.. I absolutely love the silly style of your editing.. Keep it up. VERY entertaining
What is the next project?
Plenty in the pipeline. ;)
