  1. Yes it is a nice find.  As far as can tell, they made model for one year and redesigned in 1921 moving the wheel for opening closing the vice to the other ice so it wouldn't be over the fire.  The anvil comes off the top and can be replaced by a drill plate.  On the 1921, version this was hinged instead.

  2. I just acquired this rare forge (first one I have ever seen in Canada.  It is Champion Combination Repair Forge produce in 1920 and then redesigned in 1921.  This forge has never been used!  There are two small parts missing.  One is the drill bit chuck that screws into the left side of the vice and the very small cutting hardie.  If anyone has seen, or has one of these for sale pleas let me know.

    Do you know Darrell Markewitz of the Wareham forge?   I used to meet him at Quad-State regularly; especially when he was stocking up on equipment for his school. As I moved 1500 miles further away I don't get to Q-S as often these days.

    I have m t him once a number of years ago, but that's it.  I don't live near him at all.
