Have you ever been in a situation where you needed to heat metal but didn't have a furnace or forge? You may be thinking, How am I supposed to do that? Well, my friend, your time has come. I'm going to teach you how to heat metal without a forge – and trust me when I say this will be one of the best blog posts you've read today
If you've ever wanted to make a knife but didn't want the hassle of dealing with the melting process, here's how you do it
1. Find an old piece of metal that's been sitting around in your garage for years and just toss it into the fire pit. This will produce hot enough metal that can easily be used to cut through things like wood or stone
2. Tie some rope around the metal piece so that it doesn't fly away while heating up (this is especially important if it's being used on an open fire)
3. Place two sticks into your fire pit and set them on either side of the metal piece so that they're touching each other at their base (this will allow for better contact between the two pieces during heating).
