I will measure it this evening. 

I recently purchased a 485 # Trenton anvil from a neighbor. It is built in two pieces with a dovetail joint in the center and a drift pin to hold it together. 
 

I haven’t been able to find another one like it online. Hoping one of you can share some information. 
 

is it ok to remove rust with a wire wheel and flap wheel on a grinder as long as I’m not too aggressive? Or is that frowned upon? I will be its caretaker for the next five decades or so, I don’t want to mess it up. 
 

thanks,
