Zachary Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I've been looking for another anvil a little heavier than my 134# mouse hole maybe 200# or so and ran across this! It's a little heavier than I was looking for but it has great rebound and nice sharp corners. It does have a pretty good dip in the center but I can live with that. It has a cross and then queens Dudley warranted under that and the guy told me it was a joseph Wilkinson but I can 't read that part so I'll take his word for it. It has a 15/16" pritchel hole and a 1 3/8" hardie hole. The flat horn is nice and flat so I can use that if I need a longer flat spot. It rings like a bell so I'm gonna have to get it mounted good and see if I can quiet it down some. Let me know what you think. So far I like I'm happy with it.

VaughnT Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 411 pounds of splendid! I've never seen an anvil with the hardie and pritchel in that configuration. Very neat. My Wilkinson anvil rang like a church bell and really upset the neighbors way over the way. So I put down a layer of silicone caulk between the anvil and stump. 98% drop in tone with nothing more than some silicone caulk! Definitely a pleasure to work on, now.

LastRonin Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 She's a beauty alright. Congratulations. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford to get a somewhat bigger anvil that's in better condition than my Mousehole is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
