Dave Leppo Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I used a piece of trimmed angle-iron WITHOUT the tabs Thomas mentioned. I cut it at a slight taper so it would fit tightly into the hole (I had to lightly drive it in), it don't move. this leaves the top surface flat, but it's semi-permenant. My anvil is a ~200lb Fisher, so the heal is rather thick, and I wasn't too concerned about breaking it. I have been filing the inside of the angle periodically cause it ended up just a hair too small Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Sounds like a great variation if all your tools are the same size. Did you make it longer than the anvil heel is thick so you have a place to tap on the bottom of it for removal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Leppo Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 No, i didn't. Where were you, Thomas, when I was driving it in?) seriously, If I have to take it out, I can catch the edge of it with a pin and drive it up from underneath.
