I have one I built for displays I have not used in a while, based on a car wheel rim and a hand cranked blower I bought in India.
Probably works around 12mm sq. well more if you dont mind waiting. £150 Or build your own with a petrol leaf blower or old vacuum cleaner reversed. If you need a diagram of how to make the Tuyere message me. |

Hi John
Just seen this on eBay - much closer than Kent. An ex-military portable forge with hand operated blower. Item number 292276568093 Quite close to me - happy to pick it up for you, if you were to buy it. Cheers Carl. |

Thanks Richard and Woody and Carl.
I thought about making a brake drum forge but I have lots of other projects on the go including building a new shed and completing the restoration of Burrell 3686. I have to go to see one tomorrow if no good I might make an offer on the one on ebay. Johnny |
