    I made this following your instructions but used a 1/2 cap, 1.5 inch to 1 inch reducer coupling, 1 inch pipe and a 1.5mm hole for the orifice with a 10 pound regulator and it worked very well! Thank you for your contributions to the DIY community! I was just about to give up on making my own burner after my old one with the same regulator failed to produce a blue flame. I think my problem was the amount of airflow in the old system that reused a burner from a furnace with a 1" coupling welded on. I still ordered the new regulator because I want to see how hot I can make it but overall a wild success! Thank you again!

    dont see it myself, all three tightening points are turning the exact same part in the chuck. could it make a difference where on that part you apply the turning force? idk. could be that just by taking the key out, putting it back in and tightening again youre making sure the tool is snug in the chuck, whether you use the same hole or a different one

    As a mathematician I can tell you that drilling your set screw holes 120 degrees apart would have allowed redirection of the flame down the center line of the burner very to be exceptionally simple.I admire your desire to always use the most efficient methodology for your diy build projects. I always enjoy watching a talented experimentalist in his element. You are like seeing Michael Faraday reborn; without him there would not have been an Edison or Einstein, or a Niagara power station humming with Nicolai Tesla's AC alternators..... Mr. Elemental for a while I thought that you might have been an alchemist like Isaac Newton, but there is no turning lead to gold, alas..... In the meantime carry on with the brilliant production of video material. Bye from Central Texas, USA.

    I’ve watched at least 15 of these on how to make a burner, and I think this one has been the most simplest and comprehensive covering all the unknowns. So after months of trying to decide on the right burner today I started buying the parts, though I AM curious why so many people use the welding tips drilled out yet this one works just fine with a quarter inch plug drilled out with a “60k bit” Which by the way seems to be about 2.65 mm. Hard to find locally but Amazon did have it for about eight dollars in tungsten. Thanks for making it sensible and doable. The flame seems to look right for the square forge I’ll soon weld up. I hope the lack of a Venturi doesn’t impair.

    I just test fired my burner based on your design last night. Worked perfectly. Now I can start building my gas forge. I made two changes, however. First was to the end cap. I drilled and tapped it to take a mig tip. The other was to the squared coupler. I used the drill press to put four dinples in where the screws that hold the burner tip assembly can seat themselves. My thinking was that this way I don't have to over tighten in order to prevent the assembly from shifting. Regardless, greatly appreciate you taking the time to research and make a video on the subject. Stay safe. Cheers.

    Nice video with the exception your internal flare needs to be black pipe and NOT galvanized. Zinc poisoning can kill you. The galvanized coupler on the back doesn't matter it's not directly exposed to the flame. I know you said you'd probably only use it outside but still, many who watch this wouldn't/don't know that. Stay safe everyone, and be informed.

    in the correct envireonment, this temp flame can be used to get to welding temp, however the refractory materials and forge shape have to be pretty efficient. i suggest a dual set up of this, by using the 30psi regulator and adding a tee for a second burner, you wont need as long to get steel to welding temp with two, and it could pretty handily liquify the steel in an efficient forge/ foundry

    I’m curious about how much propane usage you get from this. I appreciate the tutorial and added an air regulator on the jet portion to be able to get a better control on the air flow through the reducer (just a piece of 16 g steel with the corners folded over and a hole drilled in the center with a small slot cut in it and a spiraled wire around the jet to twist open and closed for specific air flow control. But even without the air regulator, it burns through propane at an alarming rate. Would be interested in shooting around a few ideas with you.

When you drilled out the Brass Plug you let it float a bit. In tapping that "float" is o.k. Just keep downward pressure and with no power you can stop the chuck by hand it you need to. Still have to back it out by hand but much faster than hand tapping both ways. In joy!

    I have limited experience, but it looks to me that videos like this almost always show the burner burning beautifully in the open air. They rarely show how the burner performs in an enclosed furnace without additional air to support the flame. That is the question. Does the burner draw enough air for a strong and efficient flame in an enclosed furnace?

    That "cheap steel" is in fact ductile iron or malleable cast iron. You can tell by the chips when you are drilling it. Steel will spiral, even with a dull bit. Cast will give a granular chip just like the ones you got. Home Depot doesn't normally carry steel fittings as they cost more and few if any would ever know the difference. A better way to mount your burner gas jet might been to have used a 1 1/4" pipe plug with a hole drilled in the centre big enough for your gas jet to go through. Since the pipe plug has a 4 sided boss cast onto it you just drill and tap one hole to retain your gas nozzle. To get your air flow just drill 4 or 5 suitable holes through the plug around the boss. Much stronger and less likely to fall apart.

    I have found that when drilling soft metals it is much better to grind the cutting surface of the bit to a - 5 to 10 degree angle as to the face you will avoid the catching or grabbing effect at the end of your drill as it punches through. What is happening is as you go through the end of your cut the face angle vs the cut angle are too inclined and the softer metals tend to let the drill dig in too quickly. If you reduce the angle of attack it will not tend to pull in as the surface begins to punch through the last portion of your cut therefore reducing the likelihood of your tool ceasing at the end of the punch. Good vid and thanks for filling me in on the foundry. keep it up.

    Not bad. Unfortunately you cannot run this type of burner with forced induction. I used a tee and brought my propane into the side of the tee and used a .6mm mig tip for a nozzle. Super efficient and runs way longer on way less gas. No brass needed in my setup either. Everyone copies Majestic or Diamondback forges. Those need about 30 psi of propane to get up to forge welding temperature, mine achieves the same temp at 6 psi. I run mine at 3 psi for forging. Also...as stated, zinc will kill you. BBQ regulators have enough psi....but are low flow regulators and will not work. Get one from Suburban Propane or a Propane supply outfit.
