I just need to build the forge , I have been getting round to smithing for about 20 years now LOL , I am hoping that building a forge for the shop will give me more opportunity to recycle steels to turn into usable tools and also I am trying to phase out the need for oxy gear in the shop .

No chance...no place to do it. Yet.
Perhaps if I ever do move into my mom's home when she's gone I could take over the garage and build a blacksmith shop there, but she's in pretty good (physical) health for now.
Honestly, I don't really have much interest in that. I'm far more inclined to create a welding shop and learn that skill. I've needed enough things welded over the years to justify it, and Lord knows I've machined a number of parts from solid blocks of materials that should have been weldments.
