It's a pretty high carbon steel but will cut fine (band saw) with a little patients . It's a little of a pain to work with, but the price is usually right. They will sometimes give them to you at garage sales. Comes in handy for making stands for drill presses, chop saws etc. Good Luck!

Ed, thanks so much! You are right about it being a Fisher and found a bunch of information and history on the net. I can't wait to get my hands on it and clean it up a little and look for the markings. Thanks again! Mike

Hello I'm new to this forum and like what I see. I need some help trying to ID this anvil. A friend picked it up for me at an auction in NM. He thinks it is between 180 and 200#s and does not know the name of the maker. It appears to be in very good condition with few chips or dings. The thing that I find unusual is the mounting holes for the base. I don't remember ever seeing one quite like it. Thanks for your help! Mike
