the iron dwarf Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 got this today with the horn missing and am starting to uncover the markings 2 handling holes in the waist and a round one in the base which I thought was odd some markings are showing up apart from the horn missing and a little damage to one edge it seems ok, will clean it up a bit more when I get time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 There certainly are a lot of early English anvils around with missing horns or heels. I have three in my museum, and quite a few have shown up on this site and others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the iron dwarf Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 I may see if I can make a horn to add later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Or find another one of similar size missing the heel. Either put them together or use them side by side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everything Mac Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I see a "D...son". -"Dawson" perhaps?? Not a name I've ever heard of so that's just a guess. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I see son in the top line and wrought iron? in the second line? Have you tried the flour trick on it yet?And if you found another similar one and welded them into a pushmi-pullyu anvil it would be neat!
