njanvilman Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Nice anvil in fantastic shape. Use it well for many years, then pass it on. It has many lifetimes in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastRonin Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Give her a proper stump or stand and she'll be even prettier. Congratulations on the score. Look forward to seeing pictures of the work she helps you do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBOhio Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Thats a great looking anvil. I'm also just getting started. Do you know what the purpose is of the the little side shelf? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 Thats a great looking anvil. I'm also just getting started. Do you know what the purpose is of the the little side shelf? The little side shelf was for use by a farrier to turn the clip on a horseshoe. I am not a farrier, and have never done this, but I guess it did its job. You will find that feature on most anvils designed for farrier work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 A coachmaker's anvil will have a shelf too only projecting from the side of the body of the anvil to make clips with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
