    Default upgrade the coffee can

    Well my old coffee can atop the turkey cooker finally burned up. This is it's replacement. A DIAMONDBACK forge/welder. This is one badass forge in the $300 price range.

    Thats really neat!

    Its great that its a decent size as well. I had images of huge blacksmith style forges filled with coke, but its good to see that you can get a great forge that doesnt take up half the room and thats well made and does the job.

    Hope you enjoy it!

    I love it. Does the flame have a diffuser so that it doesn't come in direct contact with the blade?

    No, but if you turn the jet down nice and low it does a nice job without directing too much heat to a small area. I just set the gauge for 5 psi and open the pet**** and let it cook
