There are seven distinct types repre-sented respectively by the letters A, B,C, D, E, F and G. Types A, B and Care alike except in the means of produc-ing the blast. The blast for the type Aforges is provided by an attached blowerdriven by hand power, Ilic B forges are. A A MAPKORTABI>;FORGES. arranged for pipe connection and re-ceive blast from an independent blower,which may also supply a number offorges. Forges of the C type are fittedwith a blower driven by a pulley on theforge, belt connected to a line shaft orother drive. This one is shown in ourillustration. The A forge is built in five sizes ad-aptable to all light work, and is ex-tensively used by toolmakers and black-smiths. The B type is made in eight sizes,particularly adaptable to mechanicallaboratories of technical schools. As be-fore stated, they are similar to the cor-responding numbers of the A forges ex-cept in the manner of producing theblast. The C forges are made in four sizescorresponding to forges in the A are fitted with a tight and loose pulley lor belt cniiiieclioi); a continuousblast may be thus provided which canreadily be regulated by means of a blastgate
