    I have decided to drastically scale down my interest in "blacksmithing related metalwork.
    Would you PLEASE post this list, so that others may see it?
     
    I hope that there are some younger members who are eager to get some of these items, and put them to good use.
    MUCH APPRECIATED!!! [CA$H ONLY! ,... please: No checks, etc.)
     
    Here's my "Tools For Sale" list: 
    I can take photos, and send them to anyone desiring to see more of any particular items. 
    I'll try to answer any questions, and hope that buyers can come and pick up their items of interest, soon, 
    as we enter cooler weather, and they can show up and load their own trucks.
    Most of these things would be difficult to pack up, and ship to anyone at any great distance. I live just North of Rockford, IL)
    interested persons can Contact me, initially, thru my email at:  guysmith99@hotmail.com
    Just mention the "Tools for Sale" in your subject line, so It's easier to sort thru my emails.
    THANK YOU!, VERY MUCH!!!...

      You have left out one critical fact, where are you located?

    I've seen Grant Sarver's youtube videos, and especially the ones where he uses the Induction Forge. That Unit is Chinese made, and it seems to work very nicely! If you look further, You might find similar demo videos by Mr. Mark Aspery, too. I have tried unsuccessfully , to inquire as to who might sell this machine, (Centaur Forge?,.... etc.?) No one seems interested, or bold enough to respond, or reply! What might be the problem?..... Surely, SOMEONE must sell this unit here in the USA!!!!!.... The one USA company that I've found that does sell this, is one based in New Jersey, called "Across International", an Industrial machine import company (?). If ANYONE Knows of a Blacksmith, or Blacksmithing Supply Company that would like to sell some of these types of machines, then, PLEASE post/say something, as I'm NOT the only one out here that would LOVE to own one of these machines, or something that is tailor-made for us Blacksmiths/Metalsmiths/Bladesmiths!....

    Hey! That's a very clever design, indeed! I'm wondering about the possibility of utilizing a electrically powered hydraulic log splitter, or building something of similar configuration, so that it would be capable of all the basic power hammer type of functions, yet be somewhat portable- (not weigh 3000#'s!). Any comments along this thought-line?
