Forge Burners!!!

[Kniff429]

Anyone ever experimented with making their own forge burners?

Any advice would be helpful

I made one very much like the ones in the picture. I have used it for over 10 years. I bought a stainless end as the black iron one I made did not last long. My burner is used in my forge mostly, by it is also used in my furnace for melting aluminum. Mine is made from Ron Reil's design.

I use another similar design, the "Oliver upwind" from here:

I use it for melting aluminum and bending steel.

I also have plans to try a waste oil burner, but have not had the time yet:

I am likely going to build a side arm burner from Zoeller Forge. They have plans and it is an easy to build and efficient. Ed

I made this one based on the Oliver upwind design , I used a 1" tube instead of 3/4" and used a mig .035 tip , did some fine tuning and it works good. It works better with end cap off, and the nozzle is now stainless tacked on, I made my forge from a 8 gal air tank .

Dave Hammer has a u tube video on how to make it.

My two favorite things. Turning metal, and melting it!

I went for a venturi burner based on this design

Credit for the burner design goes to a Daniel Gentile, and the plans can be downloaded from:
