yesteryearforge Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Some forges and post vises stands that were recently completed. Next comes the side draft hoods and chimneys. Mike Tanner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teachingclay Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 wow can one of those fall off the truck nearby my waiting pickup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civilwarblacksmith Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Heck I'll follow the truck till one does. Although with gas prices it would be cheaper just to buy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 The only thing I see wrong is not one set painted hunter green and gold. Where are they bound for? You do nice work Mike. Well done. Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Dean Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Nice work Mike. You keep showing these pictures of anvils, forges, vises, etc. and some ones going to think you are starting a school! How many stations are you setting up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bentiron1946 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Me, I like turquoise trim. I guess it is a hold over from when I was kid growing up in NM. My wife hates it.:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesteryearforge Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Loaded the anvils and stands after we unloaded the forges and post vise stands. Didnt get any photos but the stands are constructed as steel stumps from 14 " heavy wall pipe with 3/8 plate as the tops.

Bentiron1946 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I made an anvil stand out of pipe and it was so loud that I cut a hole in the side near the top and filled it with play sand, then welded it closed. Made a lot of difference in the noise level.:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I made a rectangular tubing tripod stand for my Trenton and it's surprisingly quiet as is. No sand, rubber, plywood, etc. just anvil on steel on concrete. Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
