In case folks haven't heard, Larry Passed away today

the coyote tried to drop the 450 pound columbian on me and missed

including the vigorish and taxes, slightly over 9k. A bargain!

one of the reasons I forge such pretty fig leaves is that Adam and Eve modelled them for me. I use a big rock as an anvil and a small one as my hammer...

OLD insane asylums invariably had blacksmith shops, because "rehabilitation" for folks with mental problems usually included farm work..

columbians used letter keys to denote weight......I forgot where I read that.....the c stands for columbian, and the other letters in the triangle are codes for weight

I ordered that pamphlet catalog of theirs in 1978. Cannot find it for the life of me.

I use a toaster oven to keep my 7018 dry. I did not know these rod ovens were so expensive!

very cool purchase!

buy both of them. The last anvil standing is the winner. Sell the loser.

poor hay budden...

another big one!

You hit the jackpot! It is a Kohlswa made out of solid tool steel from sweden. One of the best anvils in the world. Worth big !money

you needed a chain hoist to lift that light anvil?

what a beautiful anvil! Put that beast of burden to work!
