No, "cochon" is masculine, so "le pig" is correct gender, even if macaronic in its vocabulary. The French for a female pig is "truie", so you could say "La Sow", if you wanted. Sorry to boar you with all this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeroclick Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It is funny i had not seen this style of anvil before and then on the baba facebook page. A blacksmith in Morocco has just posted a picture with the samr style. Just thought that was quite cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latticino Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Check out that Moroccan blacksmith's swing. Right up to the heavens before coming back down. That's some good hammer control and efficient forging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilwaukeeJon Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 How heavy? And do you know the specific maker and year of production? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arftist Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 matei; you don't use the cutting table? Is that because you only have anvils without cutting tables? I routinely use the cutting table for many things, from starting a fold to reducing the size of a pipe and many other operations as well.
