Wagon Coal Forge Aug 10

I have this very cool antique forge, with a pretty nice functional Royal (Canedy OTTO Mfg Co Chicago Heights, Ill USA) hand blower. The fire bed is poured in a metal surround (rusted through on one side) from some sort of conglomerate like concrete and it’s all mounted on basically a small steel wheel wagon, there are some wooden pieces rotted away on the front axle where a big T handle mounted to turn and push/pull the rig, but could be rebuilt to make it more functional again. The duct work from the blower to the bottom of the forge is missing.

Super cool piece of Americana history! Asking $300

Portable Coal Forge July 10

I don't know exactly how to describe it, other than it has a Champion Blower. The pictures tell most of the story. It might have been a military forge, but I have no ID to confirm this. The case measures 19x22x7 inches approximately. Perhaps someone from HABA would be able to tell.

Prize Winning Coal Forge June 10



<

I have a coal forge with electric fan and anvil for sale. I bought this set from a young man who made it in 2009 for competition. He showed at the Houston Live Stock Show and Rodeo where he won a Blue Ribbon. I used the forge once and performance was excellent. I am asking $1,000 for this set or OBO. I will sell them separately.

The anvil is 16 1/2 inches long and 7 inches high and weighs 70 lbs. As indicated in the picture it is mounted onto a log and is 33 inches from the ground.

The forge dimensions are 36" in height; 28 x 28, fire pit is 6" surrounded by refractory concrete. It has a tool area, 11" x 28", on the side as indicated in the pictures.

I moved to a subdivision and have been reported to the home owners association. We will not be moving for at least another 5 to 8 years and I hate to see this great piece of equipment just get stored in a storage building.

Kohlswa Anvil May 10

Am selling this Swedish made anvil for those buyers looking for a quality anvil at a reasonable price. This anvil has been worked; but still very usable. I’ve hardly used it for the past 21 years. No cracks or repairs. These Type B-41 anvils are hard to find, especially in this good condition. Imported from Sweden to USA by the Swedish-American Steel Corporation before 1960. The Kohlswa brand is one of the best made and most highly sought after anvils around. Kohlswa (has been in business for over 400 years.) And this one is a perfect size; it is big enough to handle all of the shop work. And at 98 pounds it can easily be brought to the jobsite, this anvil gives you the best of both worlds. Made from cast steel, the face is flat and has only several small chips along edges; the horn is nice. Good size for a farrier, since one man can lift it at 98+ Lbs. Still has a good ping and rebound. I prefer local pickup, but if buyer wishes it shipped I will crate and delivery to your carrier anywhere inside loop 410 San Antonio, TX. For an additional $50.00. However the buyer will be responsible for arranging shipping!! I only drop off at the carrier.

The measurements of this 98 Lb Kohlswa anvil are: overall length 22 1/8", face 3 1/2" X 13 1/2", horn 6 3/4", height 10", hardie hole 7/8”, pritchel hole 1/2", base 8 1/2" X 9", weight 89 lb. Shipping weight approximately 130lbs? First offer over $275.00 takes it. I know that is cheap for this Anvil, but I’m in need of the space and the blasted doctors tell me it’s time to quit. I have some Metal working books, and tongs that I will throw in if you pick it up.

Pexto Stake Plate with 10 Stakes July 09

I would like to list the following in the classified section of the HABA.org website:

Pexto Stake Plate with 10 Stakes (click to enlarge)

It's the big plate, 37.5x8", with eight of the most common stakes. I have been unable to find any information on the other two stakes. One is a small round flat stake with a large bolt on the bottom and marked 910-2. The other is a 55lb anvil that I have never seen before on any stake plate. It has no markings at all so it may not be a Pexto product but it fits the plate perfectly.

The bead rollers on the bottom shelf are not included but are also for sale.

I'm asking $1400 for the stake plate with all of the stakes.

Thank you very much.
