Thanks for the input guys! I made the trip. I ended up with the blower, stand, tongs, and a Champion wall mount drill press that works all for 60 bucks. When I got the blower home I oiled it and she runs as smooth and quiet as could be.. Oh I forgot to mention he had the rest of the forge less the stand and fire bowl that he also gave me! I'm going to re-work the ash dump build a stand and put a fire pot on probably tomorrow. Can't wait to fire it up.
