    have fun! I have a question about protecting the anvil. You mentioned putting oil on it. My shop is very pro-rusty a damp environment. Do you also protect your hammers and other tools with any coating, and on the base of the anvil would wax be a good idea to keep the rust at bay. thanks.

    I am wondering if when they say hay rake teeth, are they talking about the early 1900's type of dump rake, or the newer (1950's or so ) type or hay rake? I have some of the old tines and I am curious if it is the high carbon steel that they are talking about. thanks, just found this forum and am looking forward to learning a lot here.
