ThomasPowers Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Yes there have also been discussions of red rubber balls on bicks before here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 I've speculated that the rather common flattening of anvil bicks that is seen may be due to 1 "OUCH" too many. The smith flattening the offending bick with a hammer afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 Pacman and Ms. Pacman eating an anvil ALA "1001 Dalmatians" romance scene!

I figure the word "Bick" must be some particularly vile swear word from millennia ago. Frosty The Lucky. In my research "bick" evolved from the word "beak". Makes sense to me. A nice fellow in Spokane was making nice double enders with a severely blunted horn. I wound up selling it because a pretty sharp horn tip is important to me..

I prefer 'em pointy myself; but I've found that pretty easy to fix with a gently applied flap disk and a little patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
