well i have heard about how great these lil guys are and an opportunity has presented itself in the form of a class that teaches the basics and constructs your very own propane forge!!! the class is a little expensive ($350) so i wanna know is it worth it? how long will a tank of gas last? are there any downsides to a propane forge i should know about? are they good for heat treating? are there any advantages that a coal forge has over a propane forge?
Thanks for your help!

It certainly would never be a good idea to get rid of the charcoal forge. After all, it will do nicely if your propane runs out! ;D

It really is a good question though. I have heard that you can actually add carbon to a blade by adding ash and such(things with carbon) so wouldn't it be possible for the charcoal forge to be better for it? But also isn't the propane forge faster at heating with a more reliable heating? If that were true, especially since I live in a small area =(, I would go with that I think. Remember, what is more convenient to get and deal with, think of the fuel! For me it would be A LOT better for me to get the gas personally.
