Just so everyone knows, that's an air to air boot ment to connect turbo boost tubes to intercoolers on diesel trucks. They are use to 30 to 50 psi at a couple hundred degrees. They can easily take the heat and pressure of a hair dryer.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the comment and info.

[@budman76191]

Also the pipe appears to be either 2 3/8 or 2 7/8 EuE tubing and you can get caps collars Bull plugs at most oil field supply stores or pipe yards

[@tawakoni2010]

Suddenly feels like the only person in the world who doesn't know what a clinker is...

[@TheUpsetter]

Bits of burnt coal!! Ass Clinkers are something else entirely sometimes refered to as wealnuts .

[@MattQrillz]

Grinder and paint make you the welder you aint 👌

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for watching.

[@ruatarengsicolneyrengsi8924]

Very imaginative. Great for scrap collectors like me. You are efficient and relaxed when working. Really inspiring. Thanks for sharing.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the comment glad you liked it.

[@aberhan]

Finally, someone who uses a torch.👍

[@Robinson-Homestead]

LOL thanks for watching

[@hectorfmaldonado5875]

Great Job Kevin, works perfect as a heater also. A solid 10 for you sir.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you my friend glad you liked it.

[@robradcliff6415]

Just wanted to say thanks. Been wanting to build a small cheap forge for projects and hobby work. I thought I would have to get in my pocket a good bit, thanks to this video, I know I can find everything for at most $10-$15 if even that much, so thank you my friend.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the comment and watching glad to help.

[@robertsteffler9787]

Very good

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you Robert.

[@gerardbauer4035]

Great build. Love watching your videos. Looking forward to your next project. Take care.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I Love projects especially if they're free.

[@MrAllan9]

Great video for a quick forge build, and built from scrap, my kind of build.👍

[@TomokosEnterprize]

I have been bolting rotors together for pedestal grinders/polishers for years now. I can get them for free from my local tire store. Love this little forge bud. I am going to stop and get a rotor or two from the logging truck shop I used to be the head fabricator for and make a pedestal with one and a forge with the other. Love that clinker breaker. Great idea fella ! Neat build from a bunch of scrap Kevin, Well done !

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks Dean I've been sick sorry for the late reply

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@Robinson-Homestead I hope you are on the mend bud.

[@MyLife-lg6tg]

I've already got the drum and pipe and several small blowers. Your video has inspired me to put it togather! Thanks Dan S. FROM Michigan & Texas

[@TomokosEnterprize]

@@MyLife-lg6tg These forges really shine when the parts are the right size for smaller pieces. Briquets are an inexpensive fuel and last a good long time. I can do a 3 or 4 automotive piston melt and pour in just over an hour. Sure nothing wrong about that and it is recycling too. Win, win eh.

[@carlossmith607]

I've been wanting to do this for awhile now with a free greasy truck brake drum. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Fun project thanks for the comment

[@natester1064]

You did a great job! Your exactly right...function before form.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you my friend.

[@markjauregui8138]

Easy simple, glad I stumbled on to this video... Never thought I would be able to make me one of these forges... Thanks for sharing...

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Your welcome and if you need more information on it i have a play list with more forge videos, thanks for watching.

[@jplieurance]

Nicely done. Not only effective, but takes the mystery (and cost) out of forges. Thanks.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Fun project thanks for the comment.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I have a lot of videos on how to build a forge in my playlist

[@angusmacmillan5365]

Great little forge.

[@findingikigai9834]

Just made my own! Much of my inspiration came from this video and I credited you on my channel. Thanks for sharing this!

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you you make a video?

[@richardheaton6406]

Great little small forge thanks for the video

[@williamlangdon6809]

Great build. Thanks for the upload.

[@theusconstitution1776]

Nice job fit and function is damn near perfect now I’m headed off to my local big truck repair shop to get a brake drum maybe something just a little bigger than that! Thanks for the idea and the instruction God bless America

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Glad you liked it Pete if I can help let me know good luck my friend.

[@ajadams9278]

Sweet,simple, and functional

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks AJ.

[@danjunk-DIY]

Very impressive Mr Kevin ! Great job !

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you

[@fredford7642]

Great idea for a forge! I am going to copy your idea with much thanks, but I am going to ad another brake drum with a hinge on top. so that I can add a little more coal, and also have a lid on it to increase the heat if needed. The top cove will have a cutout so that I can have longer items in the forge. Once again, thank you for the great idea. It just so happens there is a heavy truck garage down the road, maybe they will have a few spare old drums.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

All yours thanks for the comment and watching how did it turn out?

[@jasblick9984]

Great job and thanks for sharing the build. God bless

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thank you Jas.

[@mikehenry5688]

[@harryschexnayder169]

Nice build. I am looking for ideas for a forge, the "clinker breaker" is a new one for me. Very practical.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I have a lot of videos on forge building gas and coal.

That's a great looking forge. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the videos. If you create knives, please show your builds. Thanks !

You can do it my friend have some fun thanks for watching and the comment

[@VanillahGarillah]

You really love your torch!

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Lol i do it makes projects go faster.

[@shitmonkey]

The idea of adding a ring to increase the depth of your coals can also work out as a secondary use for this as a smelter

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Thanks for the idea Jim.

Thanks again for the great idea, here's what I made of it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4imnYx9mph6irc Cheers Roman.

[@neanderthaloutdoors9202]

Good project, I made my forge out of an old camping gas bottle, I cut it in half length way's and inverted one half into the other and seam welded them together, but not before cutting a hole for the hair dryer, then drilled holes along the length of the furnace bottom for air flow from the dryer, works brilliantly. All the best to you. Paul.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

Cool idea

[@Jason-hg1pc]

Did you sand off the exterior coating of enamel paint?

[@stanleybowman4464]

Very impressive Kevin. The flux core is running well & I think I will go down that road for fabrication of projects.!!

[@elijahbates9643]

Tbh flux core is garbage

[@ProleDaddy]

​@@elijahbates9643 You're ego and lack of knowledge is showing. Please tuck all that back in.

[@Robinson-Homestead]

I'm glad you like it thank you for the comment Jeremy.

[@paulorchard7960]

My first forge I used a bean can and silver tape to connect the hair dryer, worked as good as it needed to until I upgraded! The point is, if you want to give it a go just do it, find, beg,borrow or pilfer the materials to build and get started, you wont regret it, unless the pilfering part bites you in the arse!😂 get forging, its great fun and very addictive!

I think everybody starts with a hairdryer for their first low-buck forge. I still have one that looks like it was in a housefire from my first, and it still blows air mostly out the front! Since moving up to a 'high bypass' leaf blower (😎) that can scream more air in for crucible days, my only problem is finding good diameter stainless steel that won't melt! Oddly enough, charcoal chimney-style starters are a lot more durable than you'd think for that purpose, or I lucked out and the factory that day was running Inconel, ha! Yes, your coupler is silicone and will handle ~800F, though as you said, as long as air is passing through and around it, you'd have to worry about the welds melting down first long before your heat ever gets way down there! Junkyard Forge works every time.

[@squip88]
