shralp Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 My wife found this one for me at a garage sale for $2. Worth every penny. No markings on it. Weighs about 20-25 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OUTBACK FORGE Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Here is my LMF anvil that my grand parents help buy for me at a CBA conference. It is numbered 015. It is a 175 lb. I mounted it on a Doug Fir timber from when I used to work at the sawmill. Then added my own tool holders to it. Also used our lumber banding tool to keep it together.

Nobody Special Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 140 lbs, or 7/8ths of what I'm 84 and a half percent sure is an 1816 William Foster. Picked it up for next to nothing since it's "broken" - far bigger than my old one, and beautiful beautiful rebound. Ain't pretty, but it's mine and I love it. http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37796-ntm1/ http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37798-ntm3/ http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37797-ntm2/ http://www.iforgeiron.com/gallery/image/37799-ntm4/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 I think it's lovely; I have one near the identical twin; but a Powell, and it's one of my favorite teaching and sledging anvils as I don't worry about misses. Mine is now 134# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Dave Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Just got this yesterday. Removed a little of the paint and found y budde That's all I can make out so far. Am I correct, in that there should be some numbers below the name? Where else should I find markings? It has a strange hollow sound to it, but I believe that is due to the base it has been attached to for the past 50 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazmat83 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 my name is Matt I'm very new to the whole forum thing. l don't know how to add a pic from my phone and I no longer have a computer. but my anvil spent 20 some years holding up a house. the man said if you can get it without the house fallin in you can have it. so I got it. its very rough. it was severely abused. I'm about 1/8 of the way finished resurfacing it with flapdisks. if anyone can help I would like to post some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
