Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. Sorry I wasn't able to get back on here for a few weeks, got busy on a number of other things and didn't have the time. I will post some shots of the anvil as soon as I get the chance. Right now I have it sitting on a stump that I compensated for by using a ball peen hammer to make an indent for the offset foot. I think when I get a chance, I will heat it up and see if I can carefully coax it back into plain with the other 3 feet. (Correct, this is wrought iron) As I stated before, I'm not a blacksmith or a farrier, but just an all round got stuff to fix guy. I don't know how anyone lives without a good anvil. I use this thing constantly. - Mark

Hello, I have a 158# Wilkinson Anvil that does not sit flat. One of the feet is almost 1/4" off plain from the other 3 feet. I have no idea how it got this way, it doesn't appear to have been damaged in any way e.g. from dropping etc. The Anvil in all other respects is in great shape. I'm looking for advise on best way to fix this, or should I just to leave it ? It is annoying because I can't just set the anvil down and use it (I'm not a Blacksmith, this a shop anvil and gets moved around when it gets used). Is it possible to hammer this back or should that even be attempted ? I don't want to crack the leg. If not, maybe grinding it down would be better ? Thanks - Mark
