Ironty

Hahaa!!! I’ve never seen one like that anywhere. And chaining it down isn’t necessary. One man can’t pick it up . I’ve tried and it’s just too heavy . Haha Thanks for that . I’ll try the flour trick

I’m a union Ironworker and really like your thought on the back in the rivet days scenario . There isn’t a weld on it anywhere and it’s so cool. I will take all of your advice on cleaning and treatment gentlemen. Thanks for your input it’s appreciated. I just have to figure out the serial number for some lineage for my inquisitive mind and build a forge and get to work with it .

Hard to tell what’s going on for numbers there .....

Thank you

I will read that promptly . I see a 126 for numbers on it . I wondering about age and truly should I weld up the face and grind it back to true for use . Thankyou

I hope that is sufficient The stand came with it so I’m not sure The elderly gentleman said they came together by rail when he was a boy so that’s all I’m going off of

If any other pics are required let me know . Thanks guys . Your assistants is appreciated I’ll go out and take more pics . Any other angles you would like or need sir? And the stand is gorgeous. I’ll send pics of it too

Hi guys I’m new to the group and would love some assistance with figuring out this gorgeous old anvil that my son and I are going to use for forging knives instead of him playing video games. I’ll post a pic and hopefully you guys can assist with some information about this gorgeous old girl
