looking for home for forge/foundry

Casting | Welding | |

Hi -
I am moving to Greenbelt, MD and have a forge and foundry (home-made stuff) which I want to use but am moving into an apartment. I am wondering if anyone knows of a Co-op type place for me to share my stuff. Both are propane with Reil type burners. I also have a small wire feed welder and a oxy-acetylene torch set.


welding rebar w/ oxy-acetylene

Welding | |

Hello everybody-
I have found answers to my questions (thanks) but have one I can't seem to find. I have been making chairs out of rebar using a wire-feed welder but want to start using oxy-acetylene - just because I like fire... I have done some cutting and brazing but mostly just stuff I hang in the trees in the back yard, nothing I want to sit on. So, my question is what size tip should I use w/ my (medium-duty) outfit? And are there any tricks to welding rebar?
