Good thought. thanks

And wearing gloves can be very dangerous as well. anything hot can get in your gloves and be held in place and burn your even worse than without. also reduces hammer accuracy.

Decided to leave it alone and use it. after all I have a beautiful 120lb columbian cast in Sweden

Is there anyone out there that can tell me what I need to do to fix this large chip on my new anvil. It gets in the way of my Forgings and I would like to fix it but don’t want to ruin it. thanks, Quin,

I did it is in great condition Do you know what leg vice does have serial numbers?

Tomas powers so do you know of a leg vice with serial numbers??

So I got this leg vice for $30 today. I think it is a PW but I am not sure. I really want to know if anyone knows when it was made. The serial number is 14372. Thanks.

I read this one a while back I thought it was funny. “He who goes to the blacksmith shop comes back with scorched clothes”. is it just me? Quin

Ok so they couldn’t do 325 after they thought about it they said 495… but I told them I wasn’t going to buy it if it wasn’t good they agreed and next one in in the area I will do the ring and rebound tests

Me to

She agreed on $325 so I will do the tests and if it passes I will surly buy it

If it is a hay Budden and the rebound and ring tests are good should I get it… I know hay Budden anvils are good anvils and it could clean up nicely

She said her son was a blacksmith and it was his anvil and it was never welded on It has to be better than this Chinese cast anvil that I’ve been using It’s inside right now so it doesn’t rust

Is it not a good anvil
