Added and Atlas burner to my forge

Added a Atlas burner to my forge

So I bought an Atlas 30k burner and put it in my homemade forge.

I already had a burner tube that I was just using a bernz o matic torch I would just stick in the tube.

I cut the tube down and the Atlas burner slides in with not much clearance.
I'm not wanting to re due that tube on the side of the forge as it would be a pain.

My question is does this look like it is running OK...to rich? Lean?

Here is a picture of how it fits inside the old tube.

Also here is a short video of me just turning it on and cranking it all the way up.

Let me know your thoughts.

Looks good for general forging. I might give it a bit more air. I like more of a jet sound in my environment. Mine gets bright red in about 4 minutes. Ready to forge, I built that forge out of an empty freon tank.

When using my little forge to heat my blade for quenching I like to reduce my oxygen to keep my scale build up down.

Thanks George, I wonder if I can flute the old burner tube to get it to draw a bit more oxygen in?
