Hi Bob,
    There are many that travel like Darrell.  I move from fair to fair but set up
on site so it's not quite the same.  I met a furrier at the ABS school that had a
whole shop, including a bader II which was bolted to his tailgate and folded down
into position for use by opening the tailgate.  His propane forge was mounted on a
frame attached to the bed and is anvil had a bracket which held it in place for
travel and he would set a stand behind the truck for it to set on when forging.
Overall a very portable setup.
