So cool! Congratulations!

I have decided to get into blacksmithing, but not start till January. A combination of too much going on and wanting to take my time gathering materials as tools for the best possible prices... I’m looking at one that’s painted and is at the very bottom of a pile of junk that would probably take me 8 hours to get to. His deal was I have to get it out, then put the stuff back and the lowest he’ll go is $300. This is the best possible pic I could get of it, I read, “Armitage - mouse hole Sheffield *** hole 2.” Without being able to get a tape on it, I think it’s around 24” Long. Before I take this thing out can anyone tell me about it? Brand? Size? Idea on value? Thanks! -John This other one is at an auction house 4 hours away from me. They claim it’s “200 lbs +” and have no more info on it. Any input? What would you spend with that info?

Thank you so much fo doing this! It’s really helpful for the newbies like me!
