I can find no markings on it although the body is covered with a heavy layer of black paint. I bought it at auction, maybe I should snap some pics...

looks neat, can`t wait to see the pics.

pretty neat, different , I ain`t never seen anything like it. thats some thick plate though

You can get 20 Mule Team Borax in the laundry isle of most groceries. I use it and it works just fine. With charcoal make sure you have a real deep fire so that excess oxygen is burned off before it reaches your stock. Tap lightly. Don't whang on the metal or you will drive off the molten metal along with your scale and flux. The metal available at Farm Fleet can be a bit fussy for getting a decent weld. If you have a metal dealer or welding shop near by I would say that either would be a better and cheaper place to get stock.

on my prayer list also

I got one really nice blower off eBay. Paid slightly less than premium price for it.

I got another one at a real bargain price. It's a piece of junk.

I have learned to appreciate hands-on buying. You know what you're getting. And like Bog said, the shipping is a lot cheaper.
