There probably aren't many forges out there quite like this one. I designed and built this several years ago. It has worked perfectly in every way, and I am very proud of it!
I'm happy to answer any questions you may have - ask away, and when I get the chance
I will chime in.

I watched this two years ago before I stared to smith, it's only now after coming back to this video that I realize the level of genius at play here.
This is a dwarf level forge. Holy crap, I am in awe. I dont even want to go out to my shop and look at my little cobbled together rinky dink setup anymore. I have forge envy.
I just want to take the opportunity to sincerely thank you for being the embodiment of a true red-blood American Man. Your kind has been put to the chopping block and Americans have lost sight of what it means to be a free man with true soul. I enjoy immensely learning from your experiences and skill sets to build on my own. God bless
I was just thinking the same thing myself. His kind is being rapidly replaced by inexpensive immigrant labor. Moreover, he's my age and I can't help but wonder if he even realizes that his health insurance premiums will probably double in a few months. We're living in a far different era now, but I still enjoy watching his videos.
Matthew Jackson I would like to say that the inexpensive immigrant labor that keep these skills alive is good. That I find sad is the schools now days don’t teach shop so we have two generations of citizens who don’t know how to use machinery to make or even fix things. I try to teach my kids and his cousins and any of their friends how to do basic wood working, auto repair and just common home repairs. I hope they can continue learning.
Thank you so much for sharing on TH-cam. Your level of talent and knowledge is almost incomprehensible. Bravo, sir. Bravo.

Wives do have a way of bringing you back to earth don't they, and sometimes bursting your bubble !
The Essential Craftsman for President!!!
Dude I wish
PleaseKeep uploading your amazing videos , you are why we have youtube is to watch true genuine craftsman who shares his passion about his job...
And to be honest your character and humbleness shows me what true Americans are 👍🏻...
Best regards from Kuwait
I own a forge purchased from Ron Wailes at Upper Valley Forge and am very happy with it. Ron has been a great friend and available always for advice. Glad to see this video as he has mentioned your success with this innovative large forge several times in conversation. Thank you!
dear mrs. essential craftsman.. your husbands words of knowledge and wisdom shared on TH-cam can and does perpetually help younger craftsman like myself. thank yall for supplying the world with greatness and keep it up!
Am I the only one hitting "Like" right after video starts, even before actually watching it?
volodymyr metlyakov de
Your NOT alone!
no you are not. my average 'click like' on all Essential Craftsman vids I start to watch is about 35 seconds lol.
Nope
I have to, or it's over and autoplaying the next one and I've gotten so entranced that I forget to.
Anyone that is fortunate enough to apprentice with you will learn techniques that can never be taught in school or on paper. You are a stand-up kinda guy it seems and there seems to be less and less of them so thank you so much for ALL your awesome videos!
So nice to see someone using his gray matter between the ears and make a unique forge. Thanks for shearing the information. Peace too !!
You're quickly becoming my new hero. Why couldn't you have been my dad (and stuck around unlike my real one)? Seriously though, you are a truly awesome individual!
You, sir, are amazing. The thought that you put into everything that you do is admirable, and thank you for taking the time to share it! I hope that I'm on my way to becoming who/what you are. I'm 20, and hold certs in all processes of welding, been forging and making knives since I was 12, work as a carpenter and equipment operator, and I'm starting a sustainable agriculture business with my wife. I love learning and growing and I enjoy being skilled in multiple practices, because they really do build on each other. I discovered your channel a few days ago, and I'm soaking it up! Thank you for all that you do, sir!
I've never had a particular interest and don't know the first thing about blacksmithing. This and the other videos I've seen so far are so interesting. Love it.
A modern day professional blacksmith!!!!! Designed and built your own forge, wow! Awesome, the more I watch your channel the more I want to watch.....you have acquired a lot of knowledge over the years and are putting it to good use!!!
Excellent. Came for the sawmill history, stayed for the Craftsmanship. My family had a steam driven lumber / shingle mill in Wisconsin after WWI based on training in war production of rail ties in European theater. Woodgrain and iron in the blood it seems. Thank you very much for sharing.
This is the most impressive and well-thought out forge I've seen on TH-cam. Thanks for sharing!
Love this forge build, especially for being able to stack bricks for a higher rise. Even if a man doesn't have a jib crane he could use an engine picker for the same type of design adjustability.
Let me tell you something bud ......you are one hell of a man your the kid of man my dad and grandpa was that I learned from when I was a we lad you dang shour know what your talking to and how to do things the right way wow lots of respect 1000000 times bud love you tips more forge working please thanks
This forge is simply the most beautiful and versatile forge I've seen.
Please more carpentry videos! I am a young carpenter trying to master my craft. Love to learn from you. Fantastic Videos! Thank you!
Damn good sir NOW THAT IS A SUPER ULTRA ULTIMATE AWESOME FORGE MY FRIEND !!! What an outstanding and also hugely practical while remaining being completely functional, high efficiency, and not to mention too your swiveling design is brilliant !! Thank you so very much for sharing this video sir !!! I greatly appreciate seeing all your ingenuity, creative, and of course immensely insightful additions + features !! I'm soon building my 2nd forge shortly and this video has given me several severely critically crucial important things to think over and reconsider as to some designs that I've been considering going with and then naturally begin my build process !! Thanks so very much again !!!
You Sir must have been a pleasure to teach. Seems like you know so much. A pleasure to follow some of your teaching.
I thank you again Sir.
That. Is. Beautiful. Great looking, adjustable, pretty efficient, and quite obviously VERY well thought out. Thanks for sharing!
Pure genius. Really, really well thought out. Thanks for sharing that.
Thanks for sharing this. My gas forge was built from an old Freon can and has run for many years very faithfully. However, it is nearing the end of its life. I have found that I am forging larger pieces than I ever thought I would and a forge design like this would definitely allow for those requirements. I can see that this plan is somewhat scalable since I don't require it to be quite as big as what yours is. Thanks again!
I realize the vid is a few years old now but I just viewed it today. Your testimony on the idea and fabrication, and implementation of this forge build reveals the investment risks you took that seem to have payed off in the end result. This is an incredible video with such wonderful visuals supporting the narrative. Thank you Scott and your production team for this among many other valuable videos you have produced and uploaded :-)
out of every video ive watched on forges and black smithing i enjoyed this video the most. thanks for the insight
I can't tell you how grateful I am for the content and quality no bs in the video just concise information good job jim
professional at everything hands on
DUDE YOU ARE A GENIUS, FREAKN BRILLIANT MAN BRILLIANT , YOU ARE NOW ADDED TO MY HERO LIST, love your shop, now it's on the list for places to see , my ol lady wants to go to Graceland , I want to visit you and your shop !!!! thanks, this forge is AWESOME , I'm building one and I'm going with ...... ribbon burner you've just solidified evey thing I've been learning and what I'm gonna build ( now you've made me feel a lot smarter) thanks AGAIN
Hi, form Costa Rica. Ran into these videos and love the way you are doing them. I work and serve here as a missionary and you remind of another missionary that serves here as well, Brother Russel Turner.
I worked as a carpenter in Atlanta for enough years to learn it well but here in Costa Rica everything is metal and concert. So really wanting to get in to smiting and metal working. Not just for fun but to make a better living as I've been losing support every year from my churches. Not willing to leave the ministry I need to find ways to better support my self. Thank you for your videos.
Absolutely brilliant design. The amount of forethought is evident.
Brother this is pure genius! Yet another paradigm shift, forges don't have to look like traditional setups, flexibility in construction allows on the fly modification to larger volume. Another setup I like is that crane location is perfectly placed to move heavy iron to your hammer.
Awesome workmanship. Thanks for sharing.
Tony Hitchings- this is absolutely brilliant!
I just found your channel not long ago and have to say you do amazing work and present in your videos very well. Thank you for putting these videos up, they are both helpful and fun to watch.
what a beast of a forge, very envious and would love to have one just like it.
Very impressive!! I've watched probably 30 or more videos of these forges and this is definitely the best I've seen by far.. Love your videos
I honestly haven't watched your videos before this morning and have spent the last 2 hours in awww at all the little tips and improvements and your outlook on construction is how I cut my teeth in bridge construction on northern California but now I have been logging with my grandfather for the last 4 years I can really appreciate your videos and hope to maybe wonder up your way and see your shop and operation. it really is inspirational please keep making these great videos and have a wonderful Christmas
chunky Harper... Thank you! please let me know if you get a chance to wander up I-5...
I'm glad you found my little channel!
I like it. Extending the tubes a bit higher up out of the forge for the air mix would allow the addition of fairly simple valves that would then allow it to vent the heat after being shut off without needing to disconnect the blowers on shutdown.
Outstanding private Essential Craftsman!...wonderful, simply wonderful. You can see the thought process gone into that design. Really smart piece of work that. There's several ideas in that project that has me thinking for a project I'm working on at present. Thank you for the inspiration. Well done.
Man… I have seen a lot of DIY forges and this one takes the cake! Thanks for posting and keep up the great vids please.
Love that forge. I have to watch this video every couple of months just to get a fix.
My majestic is on its last legs and I'm looking to replace it with something better -- which really wouldn't be that hard. The versatility of the EC design...
Makes me wish EC would offer a kit. Smaller, of course, way smaller. A line of forges like that, with the beautiful trusses, well, who wouldn't want that in their shop?
That is a beautifully designed forge, really a piece of art!
Thanks for the video, looking forward to viewing more projects from your shop.
Fyi, I'm a retired General Contractor of 47 years, construction of homes through bridges and everything in between.
....13
Certainly enjoy your videos. As I am a retired farrier who once made all his shoes I can certainly appreciate your smithing skills.
Love the Monster forge, could have learned so much more from you when we were working on the pool. The cave looks great.
Scott I've enjoyed your channel from the start. Even though we come from similar backgrounds, I've learned many new things from you...thanks!
That is an excellent forge, looks like you got all the angles covered ! :-)
Thanks for sharing and take care.
Beautifully Functional! Wow!...awesome build sir, thanks for sharing!
Again, just a trove of hard-earned knowledge, for those of us who can learn from your experience. Thanks tons (no pun intended!)
I was looking at the forge when you were doing the hammer video. Nice rig and well thought after. But you know what you need and you're the best one to make it. Good all the way around.
Outstanding design, I've never seen one like it!
That is a very fertile mind between your ears!! I enjoy watching you have fun while calling it work.
You did a lot if homework before you constructed the gorgeous, it shows. I work from my home garage, I'm disabled and I'm constructing a coal fired forge now, it's more than adequate for my purposes but yours is a work of art.
I like your forge, great design.
incredible just incredible ,, what i would do to have a workshop like that and your skills to utilise it !!!!
Brilliant you must be real proud . Wat a forge
Essential Craftsman please don't stop your knowledge...post post
I don't say this lightly, that is a truly kickass forge. You designed it well.
Dude you are awesome. Thank you for making these videos.
Hello, I was looking for a design for a clamshell forge, I knew this design from Ron Reil. Somebody has mentionned your video and I will definetly take some of your tips into consideration. I am planning a smaller, dome shaped version instead of a barrel-forge, and with 3 Smaller atmospheric burners. I wanted to say Thank you for this, I believe it is the best forge design there is for both knife making and for structural blacksmithing. It basically has no compromise for added features. Somebody told me that the area inside, being bigger, would mean a less efficient forge for small pieces such as knives, but you can always add ''filling'' refractory bricks inside, and have a very small heating area for an extreme efficiency.
An E Stop would be great there is never to much safety in place. Also an automatic shutoff valve that fails in the close position just in case! Once again you are proving to be a resource in which we should all learn to appreciate. Especially in these homogenized times we live in...
What a great design! Wow!
I want one in my kitchen , yeah !
Thank You for the Wonderful video best one that I have seen in a long time, Great idea
That is a well thought out build my friend,damn good job 👏
...I've worked with some of that cast-in refractory...good choice on the angle iron for retaining, but stainless steel is the usual thing....
I built a firebox for wood fired (biomass) generator....8X9X16 feet....several tons of that stuff...8" thick...!!
Excellent video! I learned something....
Thank you for posting this video!!
You have a really nice forge, i would love to build myself one, when i finish blacksmithing school and start my own business... Keep up good work :)
I loved this video. thank you for sharing!
Can you give more info on where to get Ron's burners,and the fans?Thank You!Maybe a pic or 2 of the burner tube build,like where the MIG tips are mounted,etc,or did I miss a video on it somewhere?
That's a wicked forge mate, I made my own too with a 0.6 mig tip no where near the scale of yours tho. I got a train track anvil too works great for someone starting as a hobby.
Fantastic channel! Your teaching style is great and you cover a lot of information clearly enough for the layman to understand how the craft is achieved. Do you teach any smithing workshops ? Thank you so much!
Would love to have seen the construction of this forge.
Keep up these great videos!!!
Great video Scott!
I think the best part about being a tradesmen / craftsman, is making your own tools.
Hey Scott,
Don't know if you're still reading comments from here, but I'd love to know how the bricks that form the base of the forge have aged. You mentioned that they would deteriorate over time
That is awesome
This video is SIK!!!
Thanks for sharing
Nice forge design 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great videos! If you need to pour more refractory might try some stainless bull horn anchors.
nice set up
Would the cooling process still melt the fans if you left them on after shutting off the fuel. Also would that make it cool too quick causing other problems.
Brilliant
Outstanding design, great job on it! Looks like it works great for those big items. Subbed.
Damn, thats a hell of a forge. $3 an hour to run that beast seems pretty amazing to me. I use a coal forge and I've also got a small single burner propane forge for smaller stuff. I bet I can spend more than $3 per hour in coal when I'm doing some heavy forging.
You mentioned the point where you were invested to the point where it had to work out... I'm curious what it cost you to put that together? I'm at the point where I could really use something like that as well.
Me thinks it will be a forge like yours that I make soon. Might need to get ahold of some of those ribbon burners if your friend still makes them.
Wow. Nice work on the refractory and combustion mechanism. I've seen a refractory in an industrial stream boiler, but don't know if there is wire mesh or rebar inside.
Ive heard u say you thought about making your own anvil. Id love to see a video of that process. Looks like you have the forge to do just that!
This guys a cleaner.
It should be called the twin turbo XXL Monster Forge. That thing is awesome 👍👍
I know it’s an older video now but would you have a link to the fans you run with this build please
Great work
My lord that's a big one.
Can you please tell me where you got the blowers? Or what brand they are please?
amazing as always thanks
