  1. I do not think it weights 390pounds but dang near close, because I have an anvil that is 37 inches long by 5.50 inches wide and 15.5 inches tall and it nearly weights 400. Though I garentee it weight 350. I couldn't lift mine easily, I am surprised you were able to get a photo of the bottom.
  2. I am sorry I wasn't clear, I have a cherry picker and it works great, my dad used it for taking engines of of cars and so I used it for my anvil, but the reason I cannot show the bottom of the anvil is because we have it taped down with industrial adhesive of the bottom so the stand wouldn't flip. Yes rest assured I do not pick the anvil up without the cherry picker. And then it is still sketchy, the wheels on the cherry lifts up in the back a little but doesn't flip.
  3. No no that will be the weight of the machine I will have a 3000 psi hydraulic cylinder welded to it. The cylinder is for hydraulic machinery, something I have acquired. 150 years or under is old to me I am 17 years old. I have a 500 capacity max scale for heavy people. Me and my brother picked the big thing up and put it on the scale, before mounting to the stump. To be honest I was completely lucky and blessed to get such a big shop anvil for my shop. The only reason I said it was old is because it is worn so bad where it was stamped by the manufacturer.
  4. I am sorry I cannot show you the bottom of my anvil because it is to big to move without an engine hoist. There are no number standings just stamped on the side I can barely make out tony writing of what says wrought and that is all. Though I do know the anvil is very old.
  5. I AM blessed for my anvil. I found it from a friend of a friends and it was her great grandpas anvil. It is a 400 pound wrought with steel face. It has no manufacture name. It has a 70 or better rebound and is 37 inches Long and 5 1/2 inch wide. It is a London pattern anvil. I am super happy to have found and this is the best part. I got it for 300 dollars! That is 75 cents a pound! I tell you if you pray and look around and keep asking, good things happen. I didn't even find it my brother found it and it was sitting in their front yard. What turned us on about the big anvil was on their porch there was a smaller anvil but in the backyard was a big shop anvil. Btw the rounding swage was not with it, I bought that. Also I am making a 400 pound hydraulic press with what you see behind the anvil.
  6. I would look out for the steel cable. You could use them to pattern weld if your into that. I would look out for sucker rod if you find them I've been told they are 4130 or something similar in chemistry, but they are normally really big like 20 foot sections. That is what I have. By the way take my word with a grain of salt because I just began blacksmithing 1 year ago.
