Comments:

This Forge originally belonged to my grandfather (who passed before I was born).It then went to my dad who I remember using it a couple of times. It now belongs to me and was restored in 2011 by myself and my 8 year old grandson. This Forge has a cast iron pan, with no cracks or breaks or repairs.

Comments: Unlike many of the Champion blowers of this type I've seen, this has a cast iron 4 blade impeller (most other seem to have a 6 blade riveted steel one)

Comments: These tools were with the forge when I received it and I do still use the lead hammer molds, just like dad and granddad did.
