I fired the new heat treat forge this weekend. It had us up on our toes for a bit untill we learned what gas/air mixture was required. After we got it tuned in we ran it up to 1400fh. and let it idle there for a half hour or so. The Watlow controller kept it within 8 degrees of set point. I am looking forward to the presice control this new forge will give me in the H.T.department.
I want to thank my good friend, Jeff Lawrence for programing the controller. I was at a loss in that department. Thanks to all of you, here, that gave me input on this project. It was invaluable. Fred
I have not been accomplishing much as far as new knives. This blade was promised by the 15th of May and with a little late evening work I managed to get it out on time. This knife is one of five that will be given away through the buyers club at the show at Cambridge, Ohio this fall.
