Compared to the forges on eBay/Amazon, it gets hotter, the insulation will last longer, it won’t rust, and it only uses $1 propane per hour! Top that off with a swirling chamber, and we believe it’s the ultimate bladesmithing forge. It’s so well engineered that multiple schools and even ABS Mastersmiths have been known to add them to their shops. The Atlas forge uses Plicast CG LWI cast refractory, cured and baked for 6 hours at 450°F. Ready to use right out of the box and it will last much longer than wool based forges.May include a small bag of Plistix 900F refractory. This can be mixed and painted on the inside chamber to improve efficiency and toughness of the chamber. NOT REQUIRED FOR USE!!! It’s more than hot enough to forge weld, but you need to use a fluxless method. Borax will damage the refractory.
