(Appologies i'f ya also visit the Junkyard - I posted
this over thar to....) 

Afternoon fellers! 

I jist posted up pictures of the portable forge I jist
finished rebuilding. If'n ya got nuthin else ta do, ya
kin drop by me Web page 'n' have a look:

I also scraped the rust off the little anvil I picked
up - it's a Peter Wright. Around the "3" (in 0 3 15)
theres two words printed in a circle - I can't read
the top word but the bottom is "WROUGHT". 

Fer forgin all the little fittings I need to make for
the cannon carriage and limber, I am going to have to
have a little work done on the anvil. The edges of the
top are badly beat up and the top is a wee bit
sway-backed. I'm going to need a good, flat surface
and relatively sharp edges. 

Can I "dress" the anvil somehow or am I going to have
to work on a different surface? (Good anvils ain't
easy ta come by up here.) 

Thanks fer the suggestions fellers! 

Calamity (what's always findin 'xcuses fer more
"toys") Jane
