[TheForge] Treadle Hammer Anvil Stand

[Ben Barrett]

Sounds nice -- I like it.  My thoughts:  have the bottom capped, stuff
it full as you suggest and then pour molten lead into the spaces
between all those pieces (prolly after pre-heating the whole thing),
and cap the top with a nice solid mass to anchor your dies to :)  I
keep hearing about such things, but as a younger guy I haven't seen
it.  Lead is one of those things people advise simple avoidance on
when possible, like the good advice I've gotten about galvi.  Lead
would be a fun day project though, I think, if well-contained.
