double horn

I will see which costs less stitchlock or welding.

Thanks for responding.

Hi, just curious if anyone knows what the original pfp anvils were made of.

This is my attempt at not being forbidden. I will try to get pics of the stand. The anvil and stand combined should weigh between 1100 and 1300 pounds.

I will try, I am almost always forbidden.

Basically, I have a matched set (anvil and stand) and want to keep them both together.

I definitely want to fix the cast stand even though a fabricated steel stand would work well.

I WILL POST WHEN I CAN WRITE MORE THAN A SENTANCE WITHOUT BEING FORBIDDEN.

403 forbidden over and over. This is a test.

Hi, thanks guys, I figure I will get a pro to weld it up. It is a big stand around 2.5 inches thick so I may have a hard time getting it to temp for silver solder.

Hi, I have a cast iron anvil stand with a fine crack that runs for about 8 or 10 inches from the bottom up towards a corner, but not into the corner. Would it be possible to silver solder the cracked stand? I looked at some other posts on here and saw other methods with mixed reviews. Thanks

Hi, I am in Ohio and the fisher I emailed the man about is on craigslist Philadelphia. Ted

The man never did say what he wanted for the anvil. However, all the links to old anvils were on ebay , one of which was his, ( the 80 pound fisher). From the prices he was showing I figure he wants around 3,200 dollars.

Hi, just thought I would see what you guys and gals think of this. I saw an anvil on craigslist, it was a 400 pound fisher and the ad said, "make an offer," so I sent an email with a price of 900 dollars expecting him to counter offer with maybe 1500 or 1600 hundred. Instead, I got this email, his name has been left out along with the ebay links. Hello Ted, Thank you for your offer.... Sending along some comp's for you to view.... Thank you again.... Hello, Thank you for your interest and offer! I have included several links that show some some current sale prices for anvils. (see below) It is often hard to find exact comp's. Most people don't like the "new prices" of anvils, and they also don't like the "used prices". Anvils are expensive. $$$$$ I am looking for "fair market" value on the anvils. Please take a look at the current "actual" sales prices for anvils. And I have included a picture (below) that show some anvils that are not currently for sale. Thank you, Here are some recent anvil sale prices for you to compare.... And here are some anvils still for sale.... Price for a new (off brand) 200 lb. from Northern....(plus shipping) Recent eBay sale price for an old 80 pound Fisher in fair condition but dated..... (My anvil & auction....Shipped to CA) Railroad Track Anvils..... (Lots of them, but not cheap.) 50 Pound Hay Budden anvil..... Recent 223 lb. Hay Budden (sold) comp.... All of the anvils he linked to were out of this world in pricing. An 80 pound fisher with chipped but good edges was around 680 dollars plus 105 dollars shipping and a hay budden 293 pound anvil was 2,500. All the old anvils he linked to were around or over 8 dollars a pound. My main issue is, why would you say, "make an offer," when you know your anvil prices are past new prices. Why not just say what you want for the anvil in the ad and spare yourself lots of wasted emails and calls. I felt like he was trying to school me in what I should be willing to pay for an anvil. The problem is I feel bad that I made him an offer because in his world my price must be really insulting. Either way the ad has been up for two months on the fisher, that should have been my fist clue. I bet he would not pay 8 dollars a pound for an anvil. Have a good day; Ted
