Is a $400 forge really worth it over a $150 one?
I been shoeing for about 8 years now and I finally decided to upgrade my forge. I dropped $400 on a new propane forge from a brand I won't name yet. Thing heats up fast and even. But my buddy swears by his $150 one he got off Craigslist 5 years ago. He says it works just as good and I wasted my money. I got to admit his shoes come out fine. But I feel like mine are more consistent now. What do you all think? Is spending more on a forge actually paying off for you or is it just hype?

Hit the nail on the head with consistency. That even heating makes such a difference in how your steel moves, and your time is worth something too.
