So I have a Hay Budden that I acquired years ago through my father. The only discernible information on the anvil that I can make out are "hay budden", "manufactured", "UK", and "4"
The 4 is located on the center of the anvil below all of the other stamping. It has seen many years and there are many chisel type marks on the sides of the anvil.
The only thing that I know about the anvil is that the face is about 4.5 in wide and 18 in long. The horn is about 10 (ish) in long. Tough to measure because a piece is broken off. The face is hard. So hard that my machinist buddy that I took it to, to clean up the face, went through two diamond flywheel bits on his milling machine, before calling me and telling me he was going to start charging me. It's heavy. I'm not wanting to pick it up and put it on a scale, so any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh
I will submit pictures tomorrow when the light allows
Thanks,
Josh
