Salvete Omnes!
Having decided I want to build a traveling Roman smithy, I am looking for evidence on how the portable bellows were originaly constructed. Would really appreciate any and all help in finding usable textfragments or iconographic evidence.
The small anvill is no problem, there are quite a few pictures/carvings and also several finds of those. Info on tools is also nice, although the Newstead inventory shows quite a few.
