Dax Hewitt Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 This anvil was left behind when someone did a runner on the rent of their workshop. I cut the lock off the door for the landlord and he gave me the anvil as a thank you. It has spent the last 25 years as a garden ornement in my mums garden but it's now part of my forge set up. I have no way to weigh it but it took 2 of us to lift it in to my van and we struggled. The only marking or it is JS on the side, the Hardy hole is about 45mm and it has 2 pritchel holes, rebound is somewhere between 50 and 75% and it has a nice ring. The face looks more like cast iron than steel but I think that's just the effect of pitting after being in the rain for all those years. If anyone can give me any info it would be much appriciated. I have been through the entire anvil section of the site and found nothing and googling JS anvils is no good, apparently there is a cyber security protocol of the same name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dax Hewitt Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Thanks for the reply. I thought about the measurements but I only thought about it once I was back home and not when it was in front of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
