Hi Rob,I want to make a gas

Hi Rob,I want to make a gas forge, and will start once I have all the info needed, thereof avoiding mistakes. Why did choose venturi over fan blown burners? I hear the venturi are noisy and roar like hell.What`s the advantages and drawbacks ? I do have a new fan and would definetely like to use.Likewise, I also have a pile of new industrial use fire bricks I bought long ago, and they will have to be used,no fire wool around here. One concern I have is what happens if the iron piece inside furnace is hit directly by the gas/air mix? Won`t there be a hotter spot and the flame might burn a hole before the whole piece is heated? Does this mean that the burner port or inlet into the forge should always be at least slightly higher than the piece to be heated? Thanks for input Rob, and excuse me if some issues are obvious, not to me yet! Thanks.nelson.
