I Forge Iron

Forging a Ram's Head On The End Of A RR Spike

Interesting video, nice work.  You just have to get that vise bolted down better.  There is a lot of wasted energy every time the vise 'jumps'.  Also, a post vise would work better; and if you can get one mounted on a portable stand, it could be right next to your forge.  Also, I would use a needle nose pliers for forming the rams horns into their spiral.  Keep on forging.

Thanks for the comments guys... The box hanging on the end of the anvil is what I call my Neighbor Pacifier...lol... It is just a box that I keep my angle grinder and accessories in.  It is somewhat heavy and by hanging that on a rubber glove on the horn I significantly cut down on the noise and ringing of the anvil.   Works well for now but am considering other options... just have to choose one.
