Hello all.
Yesterday was a very good day: I got my first real anvil. Picked it up from
Bill Apple, at a Blacksmith swap meet in Seattle. I like it very much. Very
superior to the "anvil" I was using previously. My previous "anvil" was a 40ish
pound piece of train rail. Bleh. I like real anvils. ;-)
My question to the list:
What kind do I have? It is about two feet long, about 12 inches high, and about
3 1/2 to 4 inches wide (no ruler handy). The horn is about 10 inches long. It
has markings on the side like so: (forgive the ascii art. :))
American
(horse shoe shape w/ (I think) "trade mark" stamped, one word above the other)
Wrought
Does anybody know what kind of anvil this is? (I have been looking online, but
that has not been going as well as it could. :))
Thanks very much,
Gabriel.
