I hope that was a planned demolition, and not a post-rev that got out of hand.

Hey Jeff ,Ya Haines city is between Winter Haven and lakeland. I mostly do early period.I have a tool fetish too and am contemplating bidding on this. If I can find buyers for the items I can't use like the power hammer and 500# anvil.

I love the flypress I can see a lot of potential in one of those for armour.
any way I doubt I have any where near the cool shop you do every one around here speaks in hushed and reverent tones about it !:)
I always need tools , despite what my wife says.
I have been meaning to drop a line and come down some saturday for some time but building the house has taken up alot of my attention.most of what I have learned has been through much trial and a lot of error and I would love the chance to pick the brain of someone who knows what they are doing.
Tools so far
2 Anvils weight unknown
1 large coal forge
1 small coal forge
1 B2 shear
1 Punch
1 small ball stake self built
8 small stakes and stake holder
2 post vices
arcwelder
wire feed welder
1930's drill press (needs new bearings soon)
2 large bickiron stakes
1blowhorn stake
bunch a hammers( you can never have too many hammers)
bunch a tongs(same goes for tongs)
various and sundry other tools
basicly I am just starting out.
