Set Up a GAS FORGE / Blacksmith

In this video I'll show how my first step on Blacksmithing journey by getting a proper Forge. People of Devil Forge sent me a DFPROF1+1D forge, which is suitable for forging and heat treating small objects like knives.
Those who follow me on Instagram and Facebook already know I made my firsts knives the last summer with a stock-removal approach. To obtain a better heat treatment I thought I should get a proper forge and that moves me also to get more interested in Blacksmithing.
Before start using the new forge need some prep, which I'm going to show you briefly in this video.
If you wait till the end of this video you'll see my first ever forged piece. Let me know if you're interested in forging or knife making.
I hope you like this video. Leave a comment with your thoughts, I'll be glad to answer you.

Oh man! That’s a good looking forge! I wish you would’ve released this earlier! Just ordered a burner from a different company to build my own.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Sorry about that! But I'm sure yours will be good as well. It's a very interesting addition for a workshop enabling you to heat treat blades or other diy tools. Im also trying learn myself a little about forgin which is a very interesting discipline. Regard!

[@snake6ita]

I loved the safety warnings and advices, a safe job is a better made job!

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Sure!

[@lewistibbitts3894]

Awesome! I have a devil forge also. But I have the double burner.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

I may get one with double burner on future to forge bigger blades. Regards!

[@madisonverger5321]

dang that was cool

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thanks

[@MakingHuertasstuff]

Que guapa la fragua y que buenos proyectos vas a sacar de ahí. Un saludo

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Nada que ver con lo que usaba antes. De momento ya empecé a practicar con el yunque haciendo mis primeros abrebotellas. 😁

[@lewisworkshop]

I am jealous! This is on my list as well. Love to see how you get on!

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

I see Chris! Blacksmith is very addictive but I think anything beats working with wood. 😉

[@manuelgarciafranco]

Que buena forja. Saludos.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Gracias Manuel. Espero poder hacer cosas interesantes con su ayuda!

[@mysterygamer99]

Nice 👍

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thanks Mohammad!

[@reecelassiter3394]

I made a propane forge and when I cut the hole, it was a 2 inch, my burner however is a little smaller, is it ok to use it like that? About a centimeter of space in there

[@litoboy5]

wow

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

😁

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Nice

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thanks!

[@lincolnwilloughby9037]

Do you also use the cement stuff where you put the white stuff by the screws or just put the white stuff there?

I have a propane forge as well. Mine sputters really bad to the point of the fire going out any idea's

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

I'm not expert in that matter. Sorry

[@picanexus]

Muy interesante. Precio del kit? Gracias

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

[@picanexus]

@@WoodworkingBarcelona No está nada mal! Gracias

[@gerritschlechter8230]

How can I get one off these forge

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

It's a devil forge. There's a link in the video description.

[@RoyalInternationalHorseClub]

Please price

[@FredMcIntyre]

👍🏻🔥👊🏻

[@awldune]

I should launch a YT channel so Devil Forge will send me stuff :)

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

lol! Go on!

[@pescaitogj]

Bonita muy bonita, jijijiji

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Gracias Iván!

[@frankartman1391]

Being vocal would have made all the difference. Silent movies went out decades ago.

[@JustinTopp]

That forge is fuel rich and wasting heat and gas. Get more oxygen or turn the gas down. It will get hotter and use less gass

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thanks for your advice Justin.

[@pavolsuty1275]

or more oxygen make decarbonized steel and more rust.. better propane rich flame for blades ofc. :)

[@JustinTopp]

Pavol Šutý better yet balance it to be a neutral flame. Perfect amounts of propane and oxygen for proper combustion but no scale. Decarb happens in all forging environments. Just less so in a neutral or reducing fire

[@LPJMagicmusic]

Take out that wool from the gap in the top, that might help a bit. And it will act sort of like a ventury.

[@LPJMagicmusic]

@@WoodworkingBarcelona the blue flame escaping the forge is what he is talking about. That means excess propane that didn't get the oxygen it needed is finding it outside of the forge and igniting.

[@bulbousbungleton8691]

Thanks for explaining nothing
