Vaughn, I have given him a case of his favorite tipple, he was just happy to get it out of his shop. Does anyone know the significance of the number 8's on both front feet? Thanks, Chuck.

hey macbruce, I have no idea of the weight and nothing no weigh it on either. All I know its very heavy, I managed to lift it on to a barrow to move it and nearly broke my back! I found that old listing on the bay myself but nothing else on google. Thanks, Chuck.

Yeah it looks really good. It took a bit of work with the wire brush but it came up very well.

Hey Guys, I've been given an anvil from a friend of mine and can't find any info on the maker. So, I was hoping some of you may have some ideas. The anvil was pretty rusty so I gave it a going over with a wire brush. The name (looks like) Ash and Son are stamped on the side, below this the number 918(not sure if this is supposed to be 1918), also on both front feet there is the number 8. I know very little about anvils,is this any good and how would you class the condition? Thanks in advance, Chuck.
