Irondragon: I did not try the “site:” I didn’t know google could do that. Thanks! That link is great too, the pic in there of anvil makers marks is super helpful. I don’t know if it shows up here since I had to reduce the image quality but in my original I can make out a crown inside the star! I think that makes it a Kohlswa. Frosty: I don’t know about past use, but he was a farmer so it has probably been used as a welding table and who knows what else. thanks for the help!

This anvil is in my grandfathers workshop. He passed several years ago so I can’t ask him where he got it and my grandmother doesn’t know. pics aren’t great, sorry for the bad light. There is a star, under that it says “made in Sweden”, then it says 208. interestingly from the research I have done, marks are usually on the side where the horn is pointing right. These are when the horn is pointing left. I wish I could scrub it down to see better but due to family issues I can’t mess with it too much.

Thomas, I wasn’t asking so much about if it would work for a specific forge (though I am planning to build a propane tank forge since you asked) I was mostly just asking if anyone had ever used a motor like that. The forger blowers I have found are $80+ so this is significantly cheaper. Was curious if there was a reason not to use this. It is also smaller than most comparable blowers I have seen. (Reposting pic, sorry about link. Wasn’t trying to sell just show what I was talking about)

This blower claims 135 cfm, do y’all think it would work for a blown gas burner? It is for cooling race car suits but since it is dc should be able to wire it to be adjustable Commercial link removed per TOS.
