Re: A gas fired forge in the making

Untill I have a means of regulating or holding a set temp in the forge I will probably stick to the carbon steels for now.
I have a few projects to do as far as forging goes with a need to make a few sets of tongs, punches and drifts and may even look at making propper hammers instead of just trying with the face corrected ball peen hammers that I have for now till I get going propperly.
I would like to get into forging a bit of 1084/15N20 damascus at some stage and of course want to try cable damascus, but will have to learn how to read the forge and get the best from it before I start branching out from using plain carbon steel and eat treating it.
