Awesome!

Show us some pics of the other stuff"

That looks like a Little Giant 100lb trip hammer. The piece in the back looks to be some sort of press.

A. Mig welder can be had pretty cheap, and is both fun and easy to learn to use.

I've requested some more pics. its another member from AR15, so hopefully he will post some more.

Real cool hammer

So on one of the other forums I frequent a member posted up this anvil. The story is he got it from a fathers friend whose dad worked for Ford in the old days. He was told they made it after production hours. I have no idea if Ford had a foundry, but doubt it. Any ideas? This is the only pic I have seen posted.

How are you getting the gold color?

Cool thread

$30-$50

Are you going to paint your hammer when it's completely rebuilt?

An angle grinder with a flip disc could make that zip go away in about 6 seconds without harming the face.

I've spoken with Brent a couple of times in the last week. He is a great guy.

That looks like it could be used as a rolling multi surface anvil.

Is that Tatoo from Fantasy Island?

Thanks for the tip

Just a thought, but those gaps in your base might trap hot cinders if you are not careful. If you build another I would avoid those gaps. Fire is a real issue when working with hot metal.

Very beautiful

Metabo is what you seek

Did you cut that with an angle grinder?

Pretty cool

Mucho grande

If you put a brace in the middle 1/2" plate is plenty thick enough. 3//4" is a bit overkill and will be a challenge to move.
