How are the bearings on the blower? If you give it a crank and let loose, how many revolutions will it go before it stops. Upstate beat me to it, but I would like second refusal. Let me know via P.M.

I cranked the handle till it got up to speed then let go and it went 2 1/2 rotations. I still have no idea what its worth. I will let you guys know when I find out. Thanks Ken

What size is it?

If it is over 10" around here you could get anywhere from 50-400 bucks for it.

Might want to take a look in www.iforgeiron.com There's a lot of experienced blacksmiths on there.
