I'm sure you do. :-)  I used to go over to Cecil Parnell's
occasionally to make trawl anchors in his shop.  He had a standing
offer that he would give his anvil to anyone who would single-handedly
carry it out of the shop an put it in a truck.  I hadda pass it up.
Shame.  It was a bit beat up but a nice 450# double-horn job.

If I happen to find a bridge anvil laying about, I s'pose I could make
you the same offer. :-)
