I’m a super-novice maker. I have a 2x42 belt grinder and a few basic tools. I’ve been wanting to make my own refractory brick forge but a friend recently moved and gave me his. It’s made with about six-eight refractory bricks, some angle iron and long screws, and has a hole in the top for the propane torch, which he also gave me.
But he also gave me a very nice 7x14 mini lathe with all sorts of accessories. I never anticipated having a mini-lathe and I’m just wondering if it would be of any help to me as I begin my journey making fixed blade knives?
