Wow what a haul. Muphy's law of blacksmithing says that you'll still have to make or modify a set on the next project though lol

no problems... just challenges
that is a great score on tooling...
I didn't look hard enough locally here in BC...
Instead, I opted to order a kit that makes 5 or 6 pairs of tongs...each one a different jaw type
I think it was under 50 bucks.
One day I'll get around to drilling the holes and pinning them together...

it makes sense...you're not paying for something that was pumped out of a drop forge in an offshore factory...
you're buying a 'Smith's former livelihood

This would be at around 1000 from China as well.... but new. Maybe less with volume discount.

One of my neighbors came by and offered me 900 for the lot. I only paid 50 for them all so I took the deal.
