    Nice generator, a Ridgid pipe vise, engine hones, welding stuff, wrenches, 5 large metal bins full of Carter pins, lock nuts, machine screws, tap and die set, 3 jaw puller, 36 inch pipe wrench, and many many more things. All for a grand total of 240 bucks.ha. wish I had days like that more often.

    I saw a ad on Craigslist for some tools and farm equipment. I went out there wanting to buy a table saw...that wasn't a good deal but loaded the truck with all kinds of other tools. While looking next to the barn I saw the anvil and he said if you can get it in the back of you truck you can have it for 25 bucks. Not knowing anything about them I figured I couldn't go wrong. I was able to load it, almost blew out a nut. I weighted it when I got home and it's 167 pounds.

    Wanted to show my new anvil after cleaning. Turned out pretty nice. Next project will be to build a nice stand for it. All in all a killer deal for 25 bucks.

    No it isn't a crack from what I can tell, just the way it weathered or a casting line.( I think) I have some die penetrate somewhere and will check it. Forgot to mention that the top isn't very flat. Some high and low spots.I'm guessing don't worry about having a machine shop take some off?

    Ok, I'll gently get the rust off and leave it. Can anyone confirm the age of it. I didn't buy it to make money but would be pretty cool if it was as old I I think it is

    I bough this anvil from a guy for 25 bucks. I weighed it and it is 167 pounds. I can't see any markings on it. It needs a edge fixed and is real pitted. From the research that I have done it think it is older then 1880, is that correct? And should I take a sanding disk and clean up the anvil or just run it through my electrolysis tank. Any info on this cool anvil would be much appreciated. It's my first one.
