Took my annual trip to the antique mall, not sure what this was for.

Sweet. Thanks for sharing, Keith.

Good to see you back, Dan. Does this mean you're on the mend?
 
That's a cool old too for sure!! Not sure I'd use it for blacksmithing, but it sure is sweet!
 
Those Stewart Handy Workers are cool looking and all, but they just seem like they'd be terrible at absolutely everything.

Those look promising. Probably the arms from an old ore crusher. It is good that the dies are removable. They would work great on either a massive hammer or on a big press.

Ore crusher or rock crusher to break up chunks into smaller gravel. Both marble and granite are crushed to make gravel and decorative stone.

Many metal ores are crushed to make the metal flakes come out or prepare them for leaching with acids or cyanide.
