RuckSack Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 This anvil screams when struck. Hammer rebound is great. Can't get over the sound it makes. I'll definitely have to pull some serious moves to quiet it down some. I've attached some pictures of the horn damage after I cleaned her up a bit with a wire wheel. Still having trouble uploading pictures, but I'll throw up some before and after cleanup shots soon. For now, here's just a few from the day before and during cleanup.

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 That horn damage shouldn't cause any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-1ToolSteel Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Sweet anvil! That spot on the horn shouldn't be an issue of functionality at all, but it is in a place that could be welded withought hurting anything. UNLIKE the face of the anvil.

ThomasPowers Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 As a high carbon cast steel anvil welding on the horn will require preheat and slow cool (preheat to BELOW the draw temp of the face!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert B. Martin Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Both anvils look pretty good to me. I hope you're passing an excellent time forging on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
