Bluedruid Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Just thought I'd post about my anvil quick. I bought an Anvil about 10 years ago cause the price was right and I knew I needed one at one point or another. I picked it up for $2 or $3 and knew it was a good deal ( at the same auction a friend of mine picked up a 4 ton bridgeport mill for $5. I think everyone was afraid to move big stuff at that auction(the bridge port ended up being mine after a year or two)). I did use it once in a while to straighten some items out. Now fast forward to this summer and my son really got interested in forging and I always had an interest too just never got around to it. So we pulled some odds and ends out to start making a smithy. I finally really got around to looking at my anvil it is a small one but not as small as I thought I always thought it was 30 to 35 lbs but just weighed it and its 47 lbs. I did find some markings and found out its a Peter Wright. Its not in the best shape but not horrible either. I will post some pics when I get around to it. So all in all not a bad purchase for the price I payed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanddraggin Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Not bad at all I'd say. Great that your going to put it to use with your son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
