Man second meeting and prior commitments on both of them. Maybe I can make the next one. I think I need a new schedule planner! LOL

Jim I don't have any plans on using it. Although it might make someone a nice small portable forge for doing shows. It's all there and seems to be in decent shape. I will probably take it apart and clean it up good and sell or trade for something I need.

Jim I believe this one is the same as yours. It looks exactly like it.

Jim thanks for the information. I just bought it because I hadn't seen one like it. Luckily I wasn't planning on using it. You stated military about what time frame? Year?

I picked up this Champion Forge today. I have not seen one like this before. I was wondering if anyone could share some information on it. It appears to be a portable forge of some type. It is fairly small 26" tall and the cast iron pan is 12 - 16 - 21/2 inches deep. The three legs slip into the socket on the bottom of the. Pan and are held in place with removable pins that are secured with a small chain so you wont lose them. The large gear drives a small gear that turns a iron wheel with a tapered edge that mates to a adjustable pulley that drives the blower. Hope that makes sense. I mainly picked it up out being curious as to what it was used for. Thanks for info you might have.

My shop name is The Wooden Anvil Shop. I do wood working , hand forge 18th century knives and make muzzle loaders. So I thought the name was kinda of a catch all name for what I do?
