    Anvil...Forge...

    You can do propane or nat. gas forges, if you want a coal forge you need a blower. Using the coals as they are will heat the material up, but forcing oxygen through them will heat them to the level you're hoping for. A lot of guys have made them with a brake-drum, some black-pipe, and a...

    Damascus Steel

    Nice profile! Can't wait to see the product! Are you invested in the knife company, or just cutting the blanks for him? Sent from my B15 using Tapatalk

I'm going to look into...

    Would this work (and other questions from a complete noob)

    @Alexander he's looking to part-off chunks it sounds like. @Wyldeside if you set it up properly and the materials are smalls and thin (and not steel) disastrous? No. Kill your drill? Absolutely. There are other ways to cut the materials that would work better and just require some de-burring...
