well, for some reason I'm not "authorize do" to post replies on the original post. So.. Frank Turley, The farriers pattern came in several patterns. One had half a table, one had the horn, and I don't remember what the others were. I found a manual on this site under "Show Me Your Anvil" if I remember right. Everything Mac, I'm not sure, but based on my 153 lb PW, I'd say it was 100 lb or less. Frosty, Solid fuel. I have access to wood to make my own charcoal if I feel up to that effort. Otherwise (and more likely) I'll buy bituminous. I'm going to use either: 1) a mower deck and brake drum; or 2) a 55 forge ( I have the 55 gal drums).
