That's sweet, Vern. How many BTU's that puppy putting out.

Should keep the shop warm, this winter.

Nice to see it up and running. Good luck with the new forge. I know you did a lot of research while building it so im confident you are going to be heating some steel very soon!

Thanks, according to their website it puts out from 40-120,000 btu's at 5-30 psi respectively. It really roars at 20psi though i've never had it any higher. It should add some heat to the garage though i need to get a Carbon Monoxide alarm so i don't kill myself.

Titanium? Nice! Am I correct in assuming that titanium is the best metal to use because it does not expand and contract as much as other metals?

You do excellent work! What was the final grit you used, do you use a buffer last? Wonderful streaked horn!

Sloan-I love that FR in the streaked horn. Every time I get a set that is warped/bowed I swear I'll never use it again (knowing that I will because there is nothing more beautiful on a classic Sheffield blade).
