I was going to ask what the heck it is, then I saw the picture description... 3 burner forge? What would you use it for?

Hi Eric

Could be very handy around the shop ,especially if you don't have access to oxy gear ,cheaper, safer  and more efficient ,,Uses of the top of me heed , say  if you had a hard casting or lump of steel that needs annealing  so it could be machined ,the part could be heated up and left to cool down slowly  with a fire brick blocking the  hole in the front and rear  ,, or a  job that needed heating up for hardening ,,  ,,,,,,,,, stress revealing parts ,, or you may wish to bend a length of 1"x4" bar ,,,,,,,,, would have been handy  when i bent the handles up for the flasks ,, could have heated say 10 up at once,, bent one end ,, then stuck the other end in for heating ,
Its really just the modern version of the blacksmiths hearths .cleaner , and smaller .  Don't no about the vertical burners ,, good space saving idea though .

Cheers Rob  :thumbup:
