Hello, if anyone in interested there is a nice looking Lakeside anvil for sale on Craigslist under Cedar Falls Iowa, isnt that a Haybudden?
and there are 2 anvils for sale under Des Moines Iowa Craigslist, one is huge, one is a mousehole

"this one is a s-t-e-a-l in north carolina looks like a hayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy budden My link "

Called the guy today... says it's "cast iron" and doesn't have any kind of ring like his other anvils. He has a guy coming to look at it tomorrow, so I don't expect it will last long. Great price, though, and I'm hoping it's around this weekend for me to pick up with the quality is there.

this is an auction in ohio where they are selling a large fisher anvil(look downward on the website, there is a picture of it} and this fisher eagle looks like it is brand new, with the paint still on it, amazing! My link

Stu, That is not original paint. But the anvil is in excellent shape.

this a a good deal on a nice big anvil.... http://columbus.craigslist.org/tls/2135197290.html

Here's an anvil, vise, forge etc in British Columbia - $900 Monopoly money (Canadian dollars) or a bit over $800 US.

"The anvil I believe is a London pattern, there are a few numbers discernable on the side of it. The blower is hand crank. The forge has been a welded repair (apparently a common problem on forges) but is in working order as is everything else. All last used by a now retired ferrier and all a good bargain for $900 Cdn."

54 lb Kohlswa in (very) southern NY state. Looks pretty much pristine to me:

Even if the seller does offer local pickup, I'm not willing to drive through NY city to get an anvil.

If I hadn't just purchased an anvil, and weren't getting married in two weeks, I'd be all over that!

Hey Baja - that post has been deleted...what were they asking?

$200

If it's deleted, I'd guess someone else thought it was a fantastic deal, and snapped it up.

Wish there were some nice priced anvils popping up in the houston area.

Saw this #270 lbs on ebay.

Looks to be in okay shape in Churchville, NY

I don't mind giving a fair price for a good anvil but, this one is a bit to much.

Hey! Congrats on getting married!

Mark,

Thanks. I'm getting married next Saturday.

The CBA is having their periodic instructor training session on Saturday, and members are allowed to tag along to fill up vacancies. Mark Asprey is doing the training. When they announced it back in December, I heard the date, Jan 29, and said, "Doh! I won't be making that one!"

Well most of those look like Vulcans---not a good brand for extreme repairs and a lot of abuse going on there. (Shape of horn, shallowness of cutting plate and blockiness of heels is what I'm going by)

Might do ok at about half that price----of course his in good shape and work fine has no credibility after how he rated the anvils; looks like he doesn't know anything about smithing stuff; *or* he's trying to find buyers who don't know anything about smithing stuff.

I'd suggest a VoTech welding program pick them up and try to fix them; though after a lot of work they are still the bottom of the real anvil list in terms of quality.

Pay $70 for a 100 pound anvil; put $200 of time and rod into it to get an anvil worth about $150...enough incredible deals like that and I'll be attending your bankruptcy sale...

Anvils don't come up for sale in San Diego very often, so I guess people think they're rare:


I am selling a 1940's Bohemian Anvil. It was originally installed on an American battle ship, weighing 330 Pounds and comes on a forged stand.
Craig's List Anvil for Sale

A little pricey, but with negotiation, it could be a really good setup for someone:
Anvil and Forge

Actually, now that I look at it again, that's a nicer forge and blower than I have. Might be right, spot on.

Really not such a good deal:
Vulcan Anvil

A farrier's setup:

A TFS in the SF Bay area:

A more reasonably-priced Vulcan in Hayward:

I think I've seen this guy's ads before. He ain't cheap, but there are some nice "travel size" anvils for sale:

I'm tired of cutting and pasting, now that I found those in SF Bay Craig's List. If anyone in that area complains about not being able to find an anvil....
