January 7, 20179 yr Hello all! For your consideration, here is the the blueprint for my Rail Road Track anvil. I am posting this here, one to help find any mistakes in the blueprint and two just in case someone is looking for an idea. Now, before we get back into which way is the proper way to mount a rail, I have two pieces of rail this is for my horizontal mount. The vertical mount design is coming soon.Notes: The 3x4 and 4x4 will be glued together like a butcher block before the 2x4 and 3x4 crowns are added The staggering of 3x4 and 4x4 allow for more surface contact with each board. The 8 lag bolts are to bolt the four 6" 3x4's to the top and bottom This design is not showing how I will be mounting the rail to the stand.
