Let me tell you, if you can't find a hand crank blower in Iowa, there's a real problem!!!! One thing you might try is to run an ad in the local newspapers, something like "top dollar paid for blacksmthing tools; anvils, forges, blowers, vises". People around here in SC tell me they can't find anvils. I've bought an Arm and Hammer (NOT a Vulcan!!!), a Kohlswa, and a Peter Wright, all in very nice condition just in the past two months.
