Thanks to all for the replies. The face looks as if a whole bunch of folks that had no bizness doing so beat on it at one time or another. I'll try with the pics next week when I get home. Again, thanks.

Mayhap I should have introduced me first. Live in Md and Leesville, SC. From MD, but try to spend more'n more time down here. Been hittin' metal for 10 or so yrs, but had to quit for a couple due to a bad m/c accident. Won't do anything to the face until I'm certain it won't hurt the old girl.

I'm at my place here in SC until I go back to my place in MD (long story). Thought I'd a pic on this machine, but I guess not. I'll post one when I get back on wed. Seems to be about 1/2" difference from hardy hole to horn.

Picked up a used anvil from a junk dealer and took it home for about 90 bucks. Face was kinda rough lookin'. Did some research onit. Says 'Mousehole' on the side and has no pritchel hole. research says was from Armitage Mousehole Co in England and was made prior to 1790 (due to no pritchel). My problem do I reface the old girl, or do I set her aside and get somebody new to hit on? Face is only thing damaged, horn has no visable cracks and the rest looks good. What would you do?
