Raganui Minamoto I say go with something like design 3 and make a chimney to one side for smoke or something. I don't know, if I let the smoke out, there will be too much oxygen in the air whereI heat the steel, this would cause the metal to corrode more than it should.

Brillant, I was leaning towards design 3 also.
I have decided to make it smaller than the originally intended size for the purpose of cutting expenses. (It is costing me a fortune to build)

I've finally started to forge things! I haven't gotten at all far yet because I'm at my dad's house and it took me ages ytesterday to just get started.
It is so hard without the right equipment: I am currently being forced to use a concrete slab as an anvil (which I have already cracked) and I have to do it outside, where it cold and de-motivating. I might claim the garage for myself when I get back home and build a proper forge in there.
