Man, I don't know
She don't look like a 50 pounder to me. My 25 was built on 2/22/22 (kinda cool date) and that guy for sale looks almost identical in size to what I have. I always thought the 50's were quite a bit bigger. It says 50 on the flywheel, but, who knows? Plus, she is badly mis adjusted/tuned, jusat from looking at the pics, I hope it didnt run like that for long. The way they are built, it probably wouldn't do any unrepairable damage, but should would run like crap.
That seller also has a forge for sale. It is a three burner natti gas Mankel with a claimed top temp of 2700. Now that is hot! Is that kind of temp possible?
Anyway, i was just wondering. Seems like a couple inconsistancies from the same seller. Or maybe I am just paranoid

There's a gentleman from LA who has some items posted for sale on the ABS website bulletin board, including a Mankel forge. By the description, it sounds like it may be the same seller.
He lists his phone number in his post on the ABS site, so those interested should give him a call.

When I bought my 50# it was sitting near a 25# and they were not that much different in size. Mine is about 5' tall and the 25 was around 4'6" and since the shape is identical just scaled up, I had to do a double take just to make shure they were not both 25's.
