I Just Got This


Recommended Posts

I think it looks like it's ready to go to work. Hope you have read about not doing any grinding, milling or welding on the hardened steel face which does more harm than good. Hope you didn't have to take out a second mortgage on the shop to afford her.:D

I acquired it for free.  It was gifted to me.  I need help lifting it on a stump.  The farmer who gave it to me told me he bought it brand new.  He just never got to use it since he bought it in New Jersey in 1976

next to it, mounted on a stump, is my 455 pound Columbian

The rust brushes right off the horn with some elbow grease and a hand held wire brush.  Atop my big Columbian is the 4 inch leg vise the farmer gifted to me.  I will forge a spring and mount to ready it to do some work. I am posting this early in the morning because I was so excited over this anvil I couldn't sleep!
