The blacksmith’s cooker is a heating device that should not be missing from any modern forge. In the Vitcas shop you can easily find all the necessary components for its construction and renovation.
A modern blacksmith’s cooker is a type of device that is used to process various metal alloys. It can be fuelled with wood, coal or gas. This heating device enables the metal to be heated to the right temperature so that the blacksmith can shape and form metal objects efficiently and according to his needs. When building a furnace for a forge, there are some important rules to follow. It is worth remembering to use building materials with a low thermal mass. This will help to maintain adequate heat for the work without transferring to neighbouring refractory materials. The materials should also be resistant to abrasion, so for the furnace foundations, it is a good idea to use components made of dense raw material.
