Its a Tad more than I have now to spend, but I can save up. Worth it to get a tool that will out last me...

Now that looks good, nice anvil at a good price

Describes me to t ... thanks I'll have to hang that above the doors..

How about Scott anvils, they got one that's good price, its short though

I am tired of looking for a nice old anvil with good edges, so I'm going to go new I think. So what's out there? Looking at 125 pound cliff Carroll at my local farm and home for $530.00 just seeing if there was any thing else out there?

,

Smart move! You'll be 1 up on every thing that's for sure!

Ya, just get with Glenn, there's different styles and all the sizes ..

Lol, look at me! I'm far from fit! It was up to me what we worked, I got up at 6:30 eat breakfast at 7:00 out to the shop at about 7:45 work till noon eat lunch for about an hour, and I stopped at about 6:00 to clean up and eat dinner are 7:00 . Now you can go back out after dinner but I did not. I like to rest up so I'm fresh the next day, so I went to bed at 9:00.. The last day I was griping the striking Sledge to tight and wore my hand out. Fue burns and bruises . But all in all I was fine... Just remember Brian will tailor it to what you want to do..

It was! Had no idea how easy and fast working with big iron can be, or how you can make a beautiful elegant ring with a 4 pound hammer, and easier than with a small hammer..

Just got rested up after a week with Brian Brazeal down in Mississippi, what a eye opener! Right from the get go a year ago I was shown wrong and have been practicing and working wrong! My first advice is, if your new or even if you think your good go get training ! And not only training but the right training, if they're telling you to take a flat hammer and smack it on a flat anvil its not going to move! It can't! Hence what Brian and others teach half on half off hammer blows off the edge of the anvil. Anyway, first off, thanks to Glen for sending my t shirt down there for I could wear it in some pics! All you guys need to support the site and pick up 1 of these ! And here is a picture of Brian, Ed, and me.. Now for the hammer, these are very easy to make, first thing you do first thing in the morning, they practically make them self! Mine came in at just under 4 pounds.. Here's a picture of everything I made the entire week Overall this is the best thing I've done as a blacksmith, I have grown more than I ever thought possible in a week, Brian, Ed, and Karen are the nicest and most hospitable people you will ever meet, brian is very exact in the way he shows every technique you will need to know, he is 1 of the most intelligent men I have ever met. Ed Knows everything that Brian has taught him, And knows it Well, Also is very good at lightening the mood after a long day! Karen is the best cook! Will get you anything you need, And is great just to talk with. If you were thinking of going, Do it now don't wait, You and your work will never be the same! Here are some more pictures for you to look at, Pictures of different things on different days..

Ya 18 m&M's just isn't right...

I sure will . I get back home Monday .. 1 thing is fore sure , I have been doing things all wrong. And was shown wrong from the get go.. talk about a eye opener..

It was working good today....

Ya I would like a 150-200 with good edges ..

Mines 120 Fisher, never had the need for bigger..

nice ! would love to have a place like that !

Good video! Thanks!

Good call...

Wow! That's a big one there!

Do what you won't, mine work's, it could be Better though! It all depends on what you are looking for in you're shop. If you do it use 2 12inch pipes straight up and at least 2 feet over roof line, at least that's where I would start..

Most of the neighbor's tree back in the neighbor's yard but hey I gotta jump start on next year's firewood that's for sure.

O I wish but where its at in the clubs shop its snowed in for a while! All I can do is look at the pictures ...:(

Shop at home is not big enough. The big club shop has one. So I'm looking for a ice cream maker to hook to it and the wife can make some money at the shows ..

My grandparents live in Amarillo. I called them they say its a nightmare.. At least I'm young enough to dig out...
