still using it?

I met Mr. Budden's granddaughter at a farm museum in the Seventies

David Fisher, Pennsylvania blacksmith, is hospitalized in Bethlehem PA with a severe case of civil. I pray that he fully recovers!

There are scrap yards all over Philly who sell drops(steel end pieces from barstock). Go to Aaron Richman scrap yard at Aramingo Ave. and Wheatsheaf Lane and talk to the boss's son. He'll "hook you up"! or, you can root thru my scrap pile

If it were me, I would buy all 4 anvils. Anvils are like good health, luck, and brains. One cannot possess too much of any of these

Please buy the anvil. You'll feel a lot better. When it comes to Hay Budds, there's no such thing as buyer's remorse.

I've used London pattern anvils my entire life. Recently, I picked up this 330 pound Hulot Harmel. I highly recommend it! It's hard as heck, it rings like a bell, and the extra square horn is extremely handy. The only thing I do not like about it is that the hardy hole is too small.

Go to a shop in Romania which specializes in car springs, and have them replace the entire set of springs. Shops specializing in springs will heat treat them. That's what I would do. My hammer had the same needs, so I replaced mine from a car spring shop.

The bottom of my quench trough hides my mistakes. It's empty

Clifton Ralph passed away at 1PM today. God bless him and his family

I know exactly how many anvils I need. The answer is MORE

I have two colonial anvils I cannot identify, other than the fact they came from a shop in Herkimer New York from 1781

Buy the Peter Wright. Good price, decent shape, what are you waiting for? It would be in the trunk of my car by now

if you need an anvil or forge, private message me. I don't live far from you.

I seem to remember Larry Langdon,, recently deceased, owning a 937 pound Trenton anvil, which he used for tool forging matter of fact......
