Nelyrho 3 Burner Propane Blacksmith Forge Kit | Portable Design, Beginners & Hobbyists, Knife Making, Blacksmithing, Metalworking

Awesome forger and very affordable! Works great! My son uses it for his farrier business and making horse shoes and knives. Very easy to use.

Incredible. My son is obsessed. Absolutely lives up to it reputation. Wouldn’t buy any other make.

So far so good but, it uses a lot more gas than my old homemade forge. Also needs some type of air choke. The middle burner on mine huffs and puffs and tries to run the flame back up the tube. I wrapped a piece of a beer can around it and wired it in place where I can slide it up and down and seems to work better with about 1/3 of the opening covered. I'll come up with a more permanent solution. It also needs some ball valves so you can run one, two, or 3 burners to save gas on smaller projects and it only comes with 2 furnace bricks so I bought 4 more so I could put more of them in and cover the whole floor of the forge.

Love this thing. Only thing I had to do was add the flame mortar inside of it. I have well over 10 blades made in this thing, and it's still going. Super easy to put together. Holds head well. And it's long enough to fit an entire 18" blade from tip to end of tang. Amazing bang for your buck. Perfect for starting Blacksmiths!

Smaller then expected but works fantastically

Good forge for the money.

First off, I gave it a five-star rating because of the price. Are there "better" forges available? Undoubtedly; but they will cost a LOT more than this Nelyrho. I usually use a vintage coal burner, but needed something portable and handy for demonstrations and training Scouts. This guy fits the bill! I did several applications of ridgizer and then multiple thin coats of refractory cement. Noting that it had no "chokes" for the burners, I fabricated a couple using copper tubing - TOTALLY unnecessary. The burners fairly roar - and generate plenty of heat. A possible improvement might be valve for at least one burner for the times you need to heat a small piece; I may end up adding them to both. As an aside, I happened to have a Camp Chef Portable Dutch Oven Table on hand. Without the wind shield it makes a perfect stand, and is also available on Amazon.

Really great. Just rigidize, and coat with satanite 2x. Make the satanite like slip (clay technique, look it up) and coat the tough to reach spots with a smaller paint brush, and or paint the whole thing in thin coats. Don’t overthink mixing the mortar just add a little water, mix and examine for smoothness. Mix well and dab on with a brush or use gloved hands. Good luck. Rush version: paint a coat of satanite, dry with hair dryer 10 minutes, fire with propane until solid. Step 2 Repair cracked parts from rushing. (This how I did it and in 3rd coat is now perfect). You can add plistix ( or another infrared reflecting coating on top for the best efficiency and heat). Good luck!

Great product great price

Works great. Lots of heat hoses are far enough away they will not get hot or melt

Purchased this as my first forge, and it has worked out quite well. One thing that was told to me by another person who purchased the same one is that you must remove the propane inlet when finished using or the heat will melt the hosing that brings propane into the unit.

Great purchase my husband likes it alot very good

works well I have been using it for a few months now and no problems. just remember to get some refractory cement you don't want to be breathing in those fibres. I haven't tried to get it to forge welding temps yet but I think it is possible.
