| + | =====Notes ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Running the forge with both the front and back doors wide open will prevent you from acheiving a good heat, It is better to enclose the fire as much as possible while retaining access for the size of the piece you are working. | ||
| + | * There is a removable kaowool plug for the back door, and a pedal operated front door. | ||
| + | * Make sure you leave the fan running on 3 after you are done forging, this will prevent the heat from backing up into the fan and burning out the motor. | ||
| + | * There is a wall wart 12V power supply feeding a custom MMS designed PWM controller feeding a 12V blower fan. | ||
