So I got ahold of this anvil from my friends at the farm, and they let me borrow it. I dont know what brand it is, I was thinking one of the Fisher varieties. It has some sort of red coat underneath the rust, I dont know if that has to do with anything. It has a big chunk taken out of one of the edges and the step is all beat up, but other than that the rebound is good and has a nice ring to it. I would like some help figuring out the brand name. I forgot to mention it weighs around 100 pounds.

ok i can just bore a hole into the side then cut it into a bigger circle for the pipe to go in

ok i will

its a bottom blast i think it works better for the way the rim is

oh ok my shack is literally on top of a hill that is entirely made of clay so i will try that

I upped my game a lil bit and i got a tire rim from the local tyre shop and it is a nice cheap little charcoal forge. it works as it should except there are multiple holes on the bottom as it is a rim. I was wondering if there was a kind of paste concoction i could make to line it to finish it up. I can go out and buy what i need as long as it is relatively inexpensive. Any help would be appreciated.

ok thanks for the advice

obviously bbq charcoal is not good but what kind should i invest in ok i understand

ok thanks i have a hair dryer attached to a pipe to run air in
