спасибо for another lesson! It's always a privilege to see the effort that goes into the final product. During the bend, how hot is the work piece? Have you heated it so it will conform to the conductor, or is the work piece cold?

it all depends on the thickness of the workpiece. thin material can be a cold, and thick workpiece it is necessary to heat up strongly.

The pictures and description help a lot … man that’s old school Now I see I need to get busy and stop procrastinating on build that forge I’ve been talking about for the last 5 years. You seem to have this stuff dialed … выдающийся

I need to make time to build one too.

Ruslan, did you build your own forge? If so, could we see some pictures sometime? спасибо

You guys with forges are a lot braver than I am! LOL That is great stuff. I love the way the end is pounded flat and made to look like a fan. The pictures are fantastic!

Ruslan, count me in. Any details on the forge? Like RedBeard and Winky, I would like to have one and anvil since I am sure the power hammer is not gonna happen for me.

What gas do you use? How big a tank and how long can it fire or attached to heating system on the shop?

I have always wanted one, like a CNC cutter, etc. I have a mill, just not here since I have to get it here from where is sat and heavy.

I use propane in in cylinders on 50 liters (the biggest cylinders at us of Russia ) one cylinder suffices very much on long

Had to drive to work during the last few minutes of the auction and someone out bid me ... oh well next time. I didn't know there was a youtube downloader ... I'm on it ... thanks.

I moved recently to this room, it is a little less than pregoing so excuse for a brothel (but is closer to the main workshop), forces sufficed while only on moving, to spread out things in places there is no time. at present the smithy looks here so

Very nice. Is the blower motor variable in speed to get the right flow or just designed for the oven. And do you really need all those hammers I would kill for that anvil, but it must be a pain when you have to move your shop, talk about heavy metal..

Mike, on both forge stand blower motor with adjustment of supply of air (motors are connected through a dimer)it allows to adjust a flame of a gas burner

[Rambozo]

And do you really need all those hammers

He believes in the saying; "Don't force it... get a bigger hammer!"
Very nice setup. But the real magic isn't the tools, but the artist who wields them.
That looks like it might be the speed control box on the end of the upper hammer rack. A mix of old and new tech.

Yahoo ... had the winning bid last night on a Thermal Arts Design Access #2 open hearth gas forge I need to make a horn and hardie on my piece of rail so I'll have a bigger anvil. Now I can make some scrolling jigs like Ruslan showed.

This one almost has your name on it, Winky.

That is just expletive, adjective, seven letters awesome!!! I can do that!!! Just wish I had your power hammer. You are a genius!!! THANK YOU!!! Please send me a copy of the video to save to igonracing@aol.com

[Spike]

Very very nice donor76. I like all the follow up pics and shop pictures.

I envy you your power hammer.

[Winky]

Well, you've done it again Ruslan; That is absolutely beuatiful!

[Winky]

I've got a bid on a small open hearth gas forge; it's only a single burner unit but large enough to try my hand at making some Damascus blades. This should be fun!
