Saw a video where a guy was comparing heat zones in his new gas forge. He could hold a piece in the blue flame for a quick heat and shift it to a cooler spot to stop it burning. The clean up looked way easier too, just brushing out scale instead of shoveling ash. Makes me wonder if the switch is worth it for smaller projects.

That "story" thing just sounds like hoarding with extra steps.

Trust me, it's a total game changer for any straight lines.
