    Still a one brick but this time with a welded frame.
    its not pretty and i know its not the welds are holding but not great. I know now why... my welder is plugged into a 15amp circut that has more than just it on it.
    working on fixing that but.
    it gets metal hot.

    notice the anvil shaped door stop (harbor freight)

    it works pretty well.
    I plan to build both a coal forge and a better gas forge eventually but this will do for now.
    The weather down here in texas just broke the drought and heat wave. so I have been smashing metal any time i get the chance.
