Building a Blacksmithing Gas Bottle Propane Forge & Burners

[@WillMatthews]

Due to popular demand, I have updated the video description to include a list of components used in the burners and gas manifold. Happy hunting!

[@tenaciousdan5831]

Will Matthews where did you get the insulation. Looked like it came cut to size

[@silverback7133]

probably here www.artisansupplies.com.au/

[@silverback7133]

whats the cost of the build mate? im tossing up trying your build or buying one pre made from fire pants fabrication

[@WillMatthews]

+silver back for a new gas bottle, burner components, insulation kit from artisans, high pressure regulator and bits and pieces it was around the $300 AUD mark.

[@phillipprince65942]

How much you charge to build one.

[@markfryer9880]

That trick with using White Vinegar on Galvanized steel was brilliant.

[@MagiRaz]

First DIY forge build that paid attention to galvanization. Congrats on being smart.

[@patrickholcomb9628]

awesome build, thank you for taking the time to complete and post!!! I learned a tip a while back: I noticed in my shop, that starting a tap in a new hole was tough. I did some research. Now I tap new holes with my *****non-running/not "ON"***** drill press. I'm able to stabilize the piece and get a good perpendicular hole tapped. I just twist the chuck by hand cw/ccw briefly... again ****NOT TURNING POWER ON****

[@WillMatthews]

+patrick holcomb thanks for watching and a great tip there too :) cheers

[@patrickholcomb9628]

If offended, I apologize sir. tip was directed towards helpful hints to DIY-ers, my gurus have taught me. no offense intended.

[@WillMatthews]

+patrick holcomb no offense taken mate, at all. It is a good tip and I dare say I'll be using it. Cheers

[@honestacehole6172]

Always fill propane tanks with water before cutting into them!!!!! That was a huge safety step overlooked in this video.

[@pellegrr2]

I think your videos are genuinely some of the best out there. Great shots, editing, etcetera. I'm kinda loathing the repetitive music. Really dig your others.

[@ibnormal71]

Yeah the initial musical track became nauseating real quick.

[@GreezMode]

Thumbs up bro, you could easily delete all your mistakes from the video and act like a perfectionist but you choose to show your viewers your mishaps here and there, honestly i like your honesty :)

[@oculusangelicus8978]

Thanks for making this video, it shows me how to make a quality forge for a much more reasonable price. I noticed you used a brand new Propane bottle, best that way so you don't have to worry about the residue from the gas. I really like your design as well, the extra effort you put into the base of the Forge is just as important as the burners, you can't have an unstable forge. Once again, great vid, and great design and thank you for it!!!

[@redwolf7929]

You can fill a used bottle with water when grinding to push any old gas out

[@rhinomite5203]

Best 'forge build' I've found. Clean, descriptive, easy to watch, and nice finish. Will be doing something similar very soon. Great video WM!!

[@masterofnone]

Great project and video. And I want to put this from description out here to comments "!!!!!!!!!!- IF you use an old gas bottle, take extended precautions to make sure it's empty before cutting into it with an angle grinder. Better yet, buy a new one, they're cheap"!!!!!!!!

[@WillMatthews]

Can't be stated enough! Be safe out there

[@woodruffwoodruff6853]

Or if you absolutely have to use an old one fill it with water, then cut.

[@arealassassin]

or pump exhaust fumes through it, we do it with fuel tanks before welding.

[@xj9779]

Please edit the video you know there are many dumb people out there... I did this for my own forge and I filled the bottle with water before I started grinding to make extra sure nothing could happen(I bought a new one so it was no need to but be safe is better than blowing up the garage and me too) anyway its much easier to to clamp the valve into a bench vise and turn the bottle. OK what's that blue spray stuff and why do you not cover the rest of the ceramic fiber with concrete? This fibers flying around when you light the forge...

[@shooter77us]

The the blue stuff is rigidizer and it hardens the surface of the ceramic wool to prevent the fibers from being blown out of the forge. Disaster averted.

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

Awesome stuff great work dude. Loads better build than mine was 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@johnbaron5124]

Provides a great stating point from which I shall produce my own design with two burners and two control valves so I can just use one burner if I have a small job. Thanks for putting this up.

[@stefanpieterse1728]

Thanks for the great video, starting my own of our plans today, greetings from South Africa.

[@stevemiller6766]

The burner assembly was genius!

[@dragon111409]

Ha Nice work man , I made one of these myself a year or so ago . Though i do recommend offsetting the burners on separate sides like i did if you over rebuild it , same positions just move one to the other side , it creates a swirling vortex inside and helps eliminate the cold spots by spreading out the heat more evenly . Also that is Fing genius using a straw to help position the mig tip . Also here's a tip , if your welding in it use a fire brick inside as a sacrificial surface for the borax to eat so you don't have to replace the Kaowool or satanite as much or risk eating the bottom out .

[@WillMatthews]

Thanks for watching and the tips. cheers

[@yuriytsupko]

@William Rice At what degrees the burners offset would work best, like 90^ or rather 180^?

[@petecooper4412]

[@leahgarner8877]

Who else found this video oddly satisfying?

[@AfricanSouthernCross]

Why is it odd, I found this video extremely satisfying as it satisfied my curiosity but certainly not odd, lol.

[@stevecampbell9721]

Not sure how you got so many thumbs down, this is probably the most legit youtube tutorial ive seen on making a forge. It looks like DIY ones made before the youtube days. Great job sir.

[@OneDaysDecision]

Absolutely incredible work, from detail in the forge to detail on editing your videos! Keep up the fantastic work! Look forward to more videos!

[@mcorrade]

ummmm out of all the diy forges, I think this is the best idea. Just big enough. Coffee can too small and the others are too big for my shop. I really like the way you removed the galvanizing. Very cool....I'm going to give it a go

Definitely!

[@DigitalAura]

Ya, I agree. And I’ve watched them all!

[@humand0gz]

Craftsmanship level is outstanding

[@jimschofield8734]

I'd say before cutting into ANY gas bottle with an angle grinder, take all the precautions you can. There's no way of knowing that it hasn't been refurbished/returned to the shop as "new" after having some sort of gas in it, or even if it just has some oil/solvent in it from the factory because it's a steel gas bottle and they tend to do that kind of thing. It will have some air inside of it....... So with any of those situations, if you go ahead and ram an abrasive wheel into it, you could explode yourself to death. So... Either get the valve off and fill it with water, or carefully and slowly drill a small hole in it with a hand drill (as in powered by hand) and fill it with water.

[@j-man72b72]

Or purge it with Argon or CO2

[@hamanjam]

Before working on any propane tank, I fill with water and empty

[@MsSomeonenew]

Just washing or purging is not good enough because whatever material was in the bottle is also stuck in the walls, this is how my neighbor almost lost his arm repairing a moped gas tank. To be safe keep it full of water or sand as you work on it, that way anything that catches fire can't spread quickly enough to cause problems.

[@ColtSSR]

Fill it with water, then cut it.

[@HalfInsaneOutdoorGuy]

hot soapy water, fill it up, drain it and drop a couple chunks of dry ice in it. Cut away. Not hard. Never had one catch fire or anything else.

[@54127922]

Hey mate, just wanted to say thanks for this video, gave me the confidence to finally build my own. Got my kit from gamerco and I'm building mine now based off your design however I'm just using the large burner that came with the kit bk3 I think is the model. again thanks .*Edit* I used an old gas bottle too, to others out there wanting to build this with an old bottle do some research on how properly clean before you cut. Personal I opened the bleed valve, then took tap off filled with water, turn up side down left over night, next day wash out with detergent and rinsed thoroughly. This did take extra time but worth the piece of Mind.

[@PhoenixIronworksNS]

safety step one:*** after removing the valve, fill the tank fully with water and let it flow to push the residual gasses out BEFORE you cut into it.***

[@SuperDaveno]

It's a brand new tank...

[@PhoenixIronworksNS]

@@SuperDaveno probably a good thing to mention that if it wasn’t....

you really should encourage viewers to fill the cylinder with water to remove all gas fumes, before cutting with a grinder, Impressive though.

[@jamespalmer8738]

He bought it new...never been filled with gas before.

[@davidlange7916]

Will, Great minds must run alike. I built a forge very much like yours a year ago. I did welded an old door hinge on the front half of the tank so I can open the forge and get large stuff like big coil springs in the forge. For a floor I welded in a 1/4 steel plate floor and put wool in and then a piece of ceramic kiln shelf that came up to door height. I also welded two long pieces of 1/2 inch pipe on the sides so I can slide in a horseshoe shaped 3/8 inch steel rod that serves as a rest when I heat long pieces of steel . I run at about 8 lbs for general forging but when I turn it up to 20 lbs I can get forge weld heat quicker. Dave Lange

[@xTheTacticalSpiderX]

hi david, i made his burner only slightly adapted it to have 3 burners and it seems to not work. and despite all my efforts (taking a burner off and capping it, using low and high psi regulators, both longer and shorter pip tips and even smaller and larger mig tips [0.25-0.35])and i cant for the life of me get it to run. im currently running it off a 0-10 psi regulator and it seems to not be pulling enough oxygen through. when i point a hairdryer at the choke from a distance it starts to work properly but the whole point to this was not having to plug anything in. please if you could lend a hand that would be much apreciated

[@piggy59873]

@@xTheTacticalSpiderX you need 0-60 psi regulator for more gas pressure. Get adjustable one

[@MrIsraelParent]

Amazing video and I looks amazing! Two Questions: 1-What’s the blue stuff you sprayed in side? 2-Fibre Insulation Blanket, how much did you need of if to cover it all? I’m looking on amazon and they have some 2”x24x whatever... what would you suggest or do you have a link to were you got yours? Side question: how long will a forge last with a full 20lb tank of propane?

[@thegoodearth7]

Thank you for the video. Your commenters answered and confirmed the very first question that came to my mind the moment you put grinder to metal--I was wondering if it was going to detonate. I recently watched a video of a shop employee grinding into a 50 gallon drum that had been cleaned and he was certain was safe to burrow into. Up until then I had never witnessed concussive force lift a full-size man up, force two complete and violent rotations of the body midair, interrupted only by gravity as his body struck the concrete floor in mid rotation, with the arc of a hammer blow. The force was such that some of his clothes ripped from him. The worst part of the video was the complete lack of bodily movement that followed.

[@joshbaxter1678]

Hey mate, just wondering where you got your regulator from? Also just wondering if youd feel that having one burner would be enough to reach forge welding temps?

Fabulous video, great forge. You avoided most of the mistakes I made when I made my first one. I just can’t help but think that welding the rear body was a missed opportunity for a hinged door. You’ll probably never need it except for when you want to re-line the forge in a few years or paint it with ITC-100

[@masonherr1658]

what was the blue refractory(i think) spray?

[@ericsprado4631]

Several brands out there. VERY IMPORTANT: The KO wool refractory blanket is carcinogenic unless coated with a sealant.. Newer refractory blankets are made of a fiberglass material and don't release hook shaped particles that love getting into our lungs.. Ask an insulation person in your area. They have all the info.

[@DarrenJenkins]

I love the video. I wish I had seen it earlier as i just got a burner from gameco for mine. I didn't know where to find black iron fittings in Melbourne and didn't know i could just put the gal parts in vinegar like you did.

Try a plumbing distributor (part's-house) where plumbers or pipe-fitters get their part's ? That's just black i.p for gas piping .

[@kennyfisher8526]

How has the castable held up?

[@WillMatthews]

+Kenny Fisher so far so good

[@Kriss_Cros]

What's the name/brand of this rigidizer and where can buy it?

[@thejosuchav]

Anvilfire has a rigidizer they sell. It's expensive. A slightly more pain in the ass option is to build a square one with bricks as the liner. Search for a pottery or ceramics supply store in your area. They should have the ceramic wool as well as kiln bricks. My build has the 1" hard brick for the floor and sides and the 2.5" soft brick on the ceiling. The only reason for that was that drilling through soft brick can be done with any bit, so I didn't have to spend money on a masonry bit. around the brick there is a 1.5" layer of ceramic wool, and then around that a metal box I welded together from a 55 gal drum I got from a mechanic shop for free. I wish I had used better metal on the outside, but I can always rebuild that. I went about figuring out the dimensions of everything starting with making a box of bricks. I wanted something aroung 300 to 350 cubic inches so I could use a single Reil burner and get satisfactory heat. Measured the wool and metal pieces around the pile of bricks.

Why not fire brick instead of that mess of concrete?

That's castable refractory cement. It's the same stuff firebrick is made out of. In theory it'll be more durable than just tossing a brick it there. Though a brick would be easier to replace when the floor eventually wears out.
