Switched from a coal forge to propane 3 months ago and my anvil time doubled

Used to spend half my night babysitting the fire, poking at it, waiting for it to get hot enough. Now I just flip a valve and start hammering. In the first month alone I finished 8 hooks compared to my usual 3. Anyone else make the switch and see a big jump in output?

Didn't you mean hooks, not anvils? Pretty sure you can't double your anvil time unless you're forging on two at once.

Ray's just messing with you. "Anvil time" is pretty clear - it means time spent actually working steel. Nobody's trying to forge on two anvils at once unless they're auditioning for a circus.
