Timber Ridge Forge Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I just bought this collection yesterday figured the group would like to see it before I end up breaking it up and selling it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHCC Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Nice collection. Feel free to post the sale in the Tailgating section (within the limits of the terms of use, of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timber Ridge Forge Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Yeah I was impressed with his collection now got to figure out what the little anvils are worth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judson Yaggy Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Bunch of cute anvils there. I really love the Hay Budd, nice looking anvil. It's underrated here on IFI (from unscientific occasional personal observation) but the ones from the era of the top half made of quality steel are outstanding. My second favorite anvil!

Timber Ridge Forge Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Yeah the HB is my favorite by far wish I could keep it but that alone is paying for the whole collection. If Hay Buddens are your second what’s your first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Geist Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Don't break it up. Add to it. Get as many anvils as you can. The fun that comes with aggravating people by doing that is priceless George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timber Ridge Forge Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 LOL I am aware I do like anvils but for me it’s more a means to an end. I like buying stuff just to fund my shop whether it’s the the swage block I am looking for or that 300 lbs HB I want I have managed to obtain all my equipment 90% done through this so if selling these off these cover the cost of something I need it’s worth it.

I think you will be shocked at the prices they bring if you can get good information on the manufacturers (and if they aren't all made in China knock offs...)

Black Frog Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Mini anvils that are name brand of major manufacturers bring a premium, but most others do not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Also a lot of mini anvils have been "faked" especially if cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timber Ridge Forge Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 I am aware of the crazy prices for the mini Hay buddens, Fishers and the like none of these are them I have found the ones I do have the offers I have been getting are between 20-60 each for the smaller stuff and only about 3 or 4 have foreign names being china and india. I already sold the big HB which paid for the whole collections and a little extra so now its time to pick and choose which might be one or two smalls and maybe the Arm & hammer.
