[TheForge] Old tools

[gladish at cablerocket.com]

When I first got interested in BS-ing, was totally baffled- where in the
blue blazes would a person EVER find an anvil???
Then, a buddy gave (permanent loan) me a lovely Haybud 65 pounder, and I
bought the next two (Trentons) in the 2.50/3.00 range.
Now, since everyone in the neighborhood knows I do this work, I've got
another beautiful Swedish 90 on open ended loan (meaning I can't sell it
without permission) and another 89 American that I only use for finer
work- it looks new- that I traded for a camping cook set....they're out
there, just takes time to get your feelers out in the right direction.
Counting the ASO that's on the floor for a beat block, that's four of six
that were basically lying around my little town
