So I just spent an hour beating hot steel on the new anvil, holy Hades, what a difference!

So I went out and bounced the bearing all over it and it sounds identical except past the Hardy hole then the sound changed. I paid 250 bucks for the anvil two pairs of tongs and a hot cut Hardy tool. Figured it was worth a shot! I upgraded from this

I bounced a 1 inch ball bearing on it and bounced back to my hand. The guy I got it from said he had it for 25 years and never used it.

Hay all, new to the forum! My wife thinks I'm crazy for being excited about my first "real" anvil! But I found this on Thursday.
