Dragons lair

I also bought one to try it. Used it once went to Big Blu and picked up one of their's. Couple of hours grinding and re working hole. Then a new handle from Big Blu. Now it works great. They are a little soft. Have been told they are cast in Korea.

Latest thing out there is from northern tool. 115volt Tig Mig and Stick all in one. 140 amp priced at $499.00

About 25yrs ago I rode my harley to a radio club meeting. Short pipes shooting fire. Members said i was riding a dragon. So I used
Dragon Rider as a call sign. Before the smithy was added to my welding shop I parked the bike in the shop hence Dragons Lair

Have had stash since 67 beard since 69 short and trimmed. Buck the regs. Semper Fi

RC, If possible take the forge with you. Might be a construction issue. Good luck and welcome.

I really like my 2 burner artist model diamondback. Can fit about anything in it. I block the ends a little but haven't had time to ITC
it yet. Live close enough to pick it up. great guy.

Trentons don't have a date on them. Post serial no someone with AIA can give you a date.

Larry that one is not in Mass. Chris if the seller is 69 Chuck he seems to list some nice ones but is real proud of them. There is a big PW listed in Conn 203lb at $75 with about 5 days left.

I picked up a no name blower at the flea market. Had a flat belt pulley but the seller had added a hand crank. Only has 2 blades and with no gearbox you can't crank it fast enough to equal motor rpm.

Spade points 1in wide 1in apart dull. 1/4 in tapered point with single barb centered between the spades. Spade forces eel onto
barbed point. Use 1/2 spades on outsides. Mine were about 12in wide. Grand parents ate them. 4ft long 41/2in thick yeah they can get big.

I would check my scale. Vulcans are measured in 100s.
3=30 5=50 10=100 ect. Checked mine on a industrial scale. Outsider has it now.

West north and east mountian ridges South and up the mondo

Hi and welcome to the group. Great people here with great info.
As for your anvil H-B did not use the stone weight what you see is what it is 131lbs that is a nice size. Go back and edit your profile to include your location one of us might be just around the corner.

wouldn't be cheaper after you add the regulator,hose and POL.
My fisher with gage hose and valve was over $100.00

I built some for a mitsubishi 15 hp 3/8 X3 Flat bar with 1X1 CR teeth. 4 holes in bucket teeth welded to FB. Add on forks were 3in
channel tapered tips with skid plates. Rear uprights to top of bucket with a hinge pin setup. forks 1 in below bucket edge. Use as wide a rear track as possible. I used a 400lb weight bar and loaded
tires. Make sure to add a sub frame to the rear end. Mine cracked the block at the bellhousing. 1000lbs on the front. OOPS

Be sure to get the most flexable back you can. The smaller wheels make the blade flex more than larger ones. Had an old craftsman years ago and had to get custom blades made.

They now have both electric and air powered ones

Smear a little on your steel bench top. Let it sit a few minutes. Rub it off with an old shop rag. Berrys and slag don't stick.

racer3j Deans hammers are authorized by Hofi as are Tom Clarks and Doug Merkels. Hofi also teaches the Big Blue hammers. Dean and the rest of the crew are all great folks. Bought mine at their shop.
