Picked this Champion Rivet Forge/Blower up yesterday for $63 No cracks and solid throughout. High desert is low humidity and items don't rust much around this area.
Blower was frozen solid and it had around 6 wasp nests in it. The owner bought it as a yard decoration years back and left it setting outside for looks. Worked on it till 0100 this AM and the blower now works perfect. Still need to build a handle as that was the only missing part on the blower, and will need to build a shield
as that part is missing. (small piece of it can be seen in the photo.
