Yes it does.

Thanks everyone. I googled it up and saw it originally had a half hood on it.

Ok.. what's a rivet forge? Sorry new to this. Mine looks cast. Has a No.104 on bottom.

Picked up a little champion blower forge and was wondering if most people clay the bottom of them? Heard it will keep it from burning out but then again heard It causes moistuer to hold between the pan and the clay causeing it to rust out.

Thanks everyone.

Two plates welded on top of one another?

The face is right at 4" wide if that helps. Has hardy and pritcher hole.

The bottom part is hard to see in the pic.

I've got a new to me 103lb pw anvil. Two questions, is there any way to date them and what are the square holes on the ends front and back for? up under the horn and face.

He told me the weight was actually 175 pounds. i reported it. Wish i could have contacted the poor guy that bought it.
