Paul Ehrlich Ashman Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I told one of the older men at church that I was looking for an anvil, he said that his dad had one in his back yard he wanted to get rid of. So this is what I got for $150. It is a 120 pound Vulcan made I think in 1944. Sharp edges too! Now to clean it up and make a stand. The picture is just how I got it.

Lou L Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Sweet score! Congrats. You know Thomas will be here any minute singing the praises of using TPAAT at church. It is, apparently, a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thief_Of_Navarre Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 You will probably want at least one dressed edge. A well dressed edge will serve you better than a sharp one for drawing out. Nice anvil, looks almost new bar the surface rust! *edit* Just in time! An example of a dressed edge on an otherwise sharp anvil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 It's a thing *anywhere*; however at church I'm often interacting with different generations while most of my other activities I interact with more narrow age groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
