Hey everyone! I've posted this to a couple forums just trying to get as much info as I can.
I'm gathering supplies to set up shop in our new home at the end of the month. I've gathered everything on my list except a torch for the forge.
I ordered 10 insulated fire bricks. I don't plan on using all of them. Just wanted extra in case I ruin my first attempt. But I need something bigger than the 2-Bricks I've been seeing.. something a little longer and wider for cleaver styles. (I'll be using 1084 for now)
So I doubt the average less-than-5000BTU torch from Home Depot would work unless I used more than one. I found this at my local store though..

Does anyone have any knowledge as to why this would or wouldn't work? I know it's crazy long but I'm okay with that. I'm somewhat of a worry-wart so I'd prefer to have the tank further from the flame anyway lol.
Any insight helps. Thanks!
