Hmmm, I'm a Junior in highschool and am in the marching band.
I like to fiddle with stuff and find out ways to control fire.
Image Notes
1. This is the place where you can stick the metals into the heart of the fire.

Image Notes
1. Make sure to leave a brick missing here so that you have easy access to the
"heart" of the fire.
2. DO NOT PUT ANYTHING OVER THIS AREA WHEN THE FORGE IS ON. DO
NOT ATTEMPT TO COVER IT

Image Notes
1. This is the ash trap empty it every 10 minuets or so depending how much ash you get, a back up would be bad
2. This piece can be any length because you just need it to be stable and not hanging
3. attach this to the inside of the steel plate
4. VERY IMPORTANT
Step 6: Firing it up
Okay its finally done.
Do not rush especially now when its done.
Were going to fill it up with charcoal about half way to the top and about to 2/3's of the way like in my picture.
Now douse it in lighter fluid and let it get going once its flames have died down a bit turn on the blower and restock the fire and make sure u don't add to much charcoal at
a time.
Now heat your metal and forge it
If you want help an how-to's on forging to go AnvilFire
A gas forge can be found Here
And several different types of tongs

Complex
For more projects and Ideas visit the The Forge Group
This is my first Instructable so give me feed back on its quality
Image Notes
1. Stack the charcoal sloped and about 2/3 towards the back. Make sure you only have it a maximum of half the hight of your forge high
2. Have the most amount of charcoal be above the flange

Hi ! I'm just getting starting on Instructable and I didn't watch this one entirely.
but, I have build 2 usable blacksmith foundry.
my advices are :
don't insuflate too much air (little embers should not jump out)
put enought charcoal to keep the heat and have a hotbed big enough,
if the hotbed is directly in contact with foundry metal, it will dissipated your heat. Ensure you have ceramic or insulating layer around charcoal firebed.
If your want to melt metal, use another technique. make a foundry like that : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEWIuyeNp2k
and yes, don't use capslock please.
repear9 says:
First off do not use caps lock like a troll, Then i would be glad to answer your question.
bombmaker2 says:
You may want to check out the links you provided in Step 1. I cannot connect to them for some reason.

Well this way takes longer but looks nicer and would last longer. Eventually the can would melt
BARBARIANROCKER says:
folks i use a castiron cooking pot to melt stuff down. the wife may not like it but oh well.
