    Looks like a ruse if you ask me. I wouldn't buy it if i were you, your better off looking on craigslist you don't want to end up with a huge hunk of cast iron. Goodluck on your anvil hunt. Dean

    That right there is a gorgeous, and quality tool. Very fine craftsmanship sir

    Hey twig, I had the same problem, but don't be discouraged by not having an "real" anvil. Just keep looking, you will find one sure enough. Try craigslist, that's where I found my 175# PW after roaming the pages for 4 months Good luck to you

    Hey Grundge, there are tons of ways to cut your rasps, it just depends on what's going to be easier for you. If you have a hot cut just heat that bad boy up and start cutting down the lenght of your rasp, or you could hacksaw it is that's an easier route? Angle grinder with a cut off wheel even!

    I got the anvil today, my dad brought it home right after school, i fired up the forge made a few nails and i'll tell you what for 250$ this PW was a steal, it just has some rounded corners, a piece of rail road track doesn't even compare to this baby!

    My dad is driving up to pay for it tomorrow, then I'll be helping him pick up saturday! I'm excited

    I hope one day i will be doing the same thing, i've been into blacksmithing for a two or so months now and its all i think about. It's a load of fun

    I think i saw in a thread that fireyfurnace. that his screen name had built a chimney like that. If you find him you could ask him

    I hear really good things about them, and being a beginning smith i think it would be great to have such a great tool
  23. Dean Christman
    I figured haha, I will be heading up to check it out tomorrow or saturday for sure!

    I have a lead on peter wright in good condition(says the seller) He's asking 250$ dollars for it. Weight according to my calculations should be around 170#. go for it?

    Alright I will be sure to check for the two part rotor and it would definitely have to be a rotor from a 3/4 ton its to small to be a big rig. I'm pretty excited to put it together this weekend!
