Jeff:

I have a couple of NC Tool gas forges; the one- and three-burner models.  
I've been quite pleased with them.  They burn about one pound of propane 
per hour per burner, which I believe in relatively economical.

I have a Mankle three burner that cost $550 new and has less than 30
minutes burn time.  Will sell for the $550.  You may decide to build your
own for less than $100.
