to all blacksmiths in iowa: where is the best place to find an anvil? are there any places that would sell them or should i start by looking in estate auctions? any help would be great. thanks.

thank you all. good to be here. larger scale like gates and large sculpture. small things as well but primarily large. like albert paley

i hail from iowa

hello everyone, im 16 and started blacksmithing about two years ago. i moved from where the forge was at that i was using for 5 bucks for three hours every tuesday night. ever since ive wanted to get back into blacksmithing. im currently looking to purchace tools and start my own shop. i would like to make a living doing large-scale artist blacksmithing someday. any advice on tool brands and what to look for would be greatly appreciated. thanks
