Sprig1 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi I have a few anvils just getting started. What do you think this one is it says England 45 kgs on the other side 100lbs nothing else. It seems to be cast and brand new. The other is a mouse hole 1 / 1 /14 pretty beat up I use to use it on the farm to straighten things. The other is a peter wright can't find any markings for the weight probably 180 lbs. The edges are a little beat up top swayback. They all should be good enough for who they are for. I just about have my shop done just finished putting metal on the walls its small but a start. Thanks chris sorry about being upside down pictures. iPads must not be for left handed people. They are not upside down when I look at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McPherson Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 The blue one is a Brooks or Vaughan-Brooks one piece cast steel anvil, very sturdy and reliable, if not exactly graceful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprig1 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Thank you for replying. I couldn't find anything on it. It is probably the best of the lot. All the others look like they need some help. Someone more skilled then me to weld on them. Thanks again chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
