[TheForge] anvil pointing

[Jerry Frost]

Being almost entirely self taught, at least till I was introduced to
theforge and Artmetal lists nobody told me which way to point my anvil. So I
positioned it entirely depending on how well it worked for what I was doing
at the time.

If I have a good solid floor I'll turn it to suit during heats. Right now
it's sitting on gravel so turning it tends to make it rock or tip so I
positioned it far enough away from anything I can work all round it as
suits.

Reading George's description of the which/whys of pointing the horn I
realized it's for the same reasons I turn mine.

So I find myself pointing the horn to the right for turning the decorative
stuff and to the left for the more industrial type work.
