Sweet anvil. -
Nice score!

I'm not from Oklahoma but you could give these guys a try. http://www.saltforkcraftsmen.org/

I for one would like to see more of your forge build. Thanks for offering to do this as I know it adds a lot of extra time and work to the build for you.

Nice coat hooks. And they come in both right and left hand versions.

Buffalo Forge Drill Press No. 65R Restoration
stroupe63 replied to tonyw's topic in Drills, Post drills, Mag drills, etc
Hi Tony I believe I may have bid against you on that drill. sorry. I hope you get it back to usable condition. Did you get the forge that was at the same auction. -
Looks like it came off a pallet jack not a fork lift.

Nice work, It looks like you had a very successful trip.

I bought this at a local auction today I believe it's called a Beak Horn Stake Anvil. From what I have read this was made for sheet metal work. Can I use this for general forging work. I was thinking of mounting it in a tree stump kind of like the one in the pictures only taller. What do you guys think would be the best way to use this in a blacksmith shop ?. Thanks Steve,

I agree with everyone else, very nice design for a poker. Nice work.

PHILIHO1 I like that design it seems to be very stable. I would like to see a video of you forging with it. Nice work. -
A Ramp is a wild onion of sorts. They mostly only grow in the mountains .

Leeknivek how is the build going have you made any new progress?

Hi Kubiack, I believe this wet grinder was made in the 70's. It was sold by the Prairie Tool Company Inc. Prairie Du Chien , Wisconsin. It is a model G 7 with a 10" grinding wheel powered by a 1/3 hp motor. Here's some more pictures.

Sooo... what does the kitty litter do ? I am new to this and haven't learned the tricks yet. Thanks Steve,

Good answer Thomas. That's what I wanted hear.

I have a question on forge maintenance. My forge is about five months old and getting a really rusty looking color inside. When should I think about doing something to the inside ? Here are some pics showing what it looks like. Here's what the inside looks like After five minutes warm up So what do you think needs to be done to this forge to keep it preforming efficiently. All suggestions are appreciated.

Nice looking forge. I wish I would have built mine with big doors (openings) like yours.
-
Thanks for the replies. I guess $2.22 a lb. isn't to bad if it's in good condition.

I came across this ad in our local newspaper: #9 FISHER ANVIL Patented 1877 $200 Firm. That's all the ad said no weight was listed. I will call them tomorrow and see if I can take a look at it. Don't want to call today being Easter Sunday. So my question is what does the number 9 mean. Does it tell us anything about the anvil as far as style or weight. I did try to find info on the web but came up with nothing. Any info would be appreciated that way I can be somewhat informed when I go to look at it . That's if it's not sold already. Thanks Steve,
-
Fine looking vise and one heck of a deal. Wish I could find deals like that.
-
dawitt that is a very interesting machine to watch run. Nice work indeed. Have you made any changes since you posted this video. Steve,
-
Nice job on the belt grinder Damion78. That is on my short list of things to build they are way to expensive to buy new. I also have been thinking about using automotive idler pulley's / wheels. Steve,

Nice job building your own forge blower. Makes me want to build one even though I don't need one. Let us know how well it works after you get it hooked to the forge. Steve,
