This (rather long and agonizing detailed) video will show you how to build a simple propane burner that can be used in a blacksmith’s forge using fairly simple tools (no machining). This burner, when used in a properly insulated small forge, can produce enough heat for forge welding.
My small forge is an eight inch (OD) tube, eight inches long, with two inches of coated thermal blanket. It has a solid refractory floor. I use soft fire brick for doors.
Metalwork is a hobby for me. As such, I don’t sell things I make.
If you want to purchase a professionally made burner that is similar in design, I have a friend that makes them for sale. His name is Steve Genshiemer. I have no business relationship with Steve, but I can personally vouch that he makes a great burner. You can reach him at (609) 731-1772.
Using this type of equipment is inherently dangerous. Use this information at your own risk.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL.
