Do you guys think it would be a good Idea to put steel on the outside of the Insboard like a 12x12 inch pece to protect the insboard is this not necessary. I know that I probly should have used brick it would have been easer to do. On Ellis's web site it says
"The 1/2" size is useful for making sliding door closures! With the high insulating property of the 26# density Insboard HD, you no longer have to use thick clumsy firebricks to close off your forge door openings. Weld angle iron brackets parallel with the top and bottom section of your forge opening and slide the Insboard in to make the opening the size you need for the work you're doing. This can help make your forge more efficient by not allowing excess heat to escape a larger than needed opening."
I really appreacte all your guys help expecially IG for having really nice forge plans. I am glad that there is a place on the web that I can get help with this sickness. thanks a million times guys.
