roydog007 Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Just leased a shop it's full of 775 sq ft of junk from a recent move but I'm gonna get it cleared out and rolling soon in spite of my ADD. Meanwhile I'm doing my homework, it seems the biggest natural gas forge I can put in without the gas company adding a branch line is a "Johnson Furnace 122 forge" it cranks out 200,000 BTU's. Thought I would consult the oracle to see if anyone has worked with one of these forges and what they think about it. Also poking around trying to find a deal on one. Good deal is about $ 750.00 used in decent shape. Link to comment

roydog007 Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 There's a few pics on my smugmug. I haven't done much lately due to lack of space, getting excited to do some bigger pieces now that I have a shop. Hope to have it as clean as David's shop at least for an hour or 2 just to say it looked that once. Link to comment

roydog007 Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Thanks Jan. I'm a member of the California Blacksmith Assoc,their board isn't as active as this one. Thought I would try here first. The BMWST Oracle is pretty reliable on a variety of topics. Link to comment
