    Well i was able to pick up a 100# anvil for $140 today. Its fairly rough and will need to be resurfaced with the belt sander but it looks useable and is not cracked.

    Thanks guys. Frank i agree with you 100%, i should have been more specific i dont have the skills yet to consider making tools for other. I was curious if my thinking was correct that i could use old hammer and ax head for my first tools. There were several items mentioned that i runs across at kansas farm auctions that i will be picking up for future projects.

    I picked up a box of hammers and ax heads, wood splitting wedges, at an auction this weekend with the intent of forging them into hardies, drifts and punches. I was wondering what other types of scrap or everyday items other use to make thier tools and if the items i have will work for tools?

    Just curious how much used anvils are selling for? Went to an auction this weekend here in the midwest that had 3 anvils all lest then 100# and they each sold for 500 or more. Watched one sell for 250 three weeks ago, it was about the same size.
