Building a somewhat modern leather pump bellows is simple.  I  recommend that 
the air flow come in from the side then up to the Fire  bowl.

That's neat.  I haven't done or seen anyone doing  smelting.   I'm really 
interested in building an above ground  forge.  I'm a fairly new blacksmith 
myself.  I was reading an  article on Regia mainsite that mentioned this 
shallow clay bowl  idea.  It would work great for me since I'm an old guy 
with bad knees  who doesn't want to have forge in the ground.  The clay bowl 
is easy,  but I wonder about the air flow and how the bellows are worked. 
Does it  come in from the side, underneath, What?
