PeteH Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I'd read somewhere that people shot anvils for celebrations when they didn't have a cannon to shoot. No idea if that's true, but it sounds plausible. Certainly it's more spectacular than firecrackers !! I'm with the folks who say "watch from a distance". And I sure won't risk either of my anvils doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Yes and they used a minimal amount of powder. They did not mill larger cavities in the base of the anvil and pack it with extra powder to get the anvil to go higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
