[TheForge] Top of a broken anvil?

[Jonathan Barnhart]

I've been looking for a bigger anvil to work from lately.  My 70lb. Swedish Kolswa is a nice anvil, but I need more working space.  While digging through a and selling scrap from my Grandpa's old farm we found the top of an old anvil.  When I say top, I mean the base was cut off of it at about the point where most anvils neck in.  The narrow spot between the top and the legs of the anvil.  So, it has no base to mount it.  Also it has no maker marks visible on it.  They must have been cut off with the base.  It's somewhere around 2-2 1/2' long.  I'd guess that at one time it was between 125 and 150 lbs.    The working surface is long and narrow.  It has a small offset working surface on one side of the horn.  It has one hardie and two pritchel holes.  There is no step on the horn.  I can't afford a new anvil right now, but I might be able to put a base on this one using scrap that I already have.  Or at least devise some sort of cradle to mount it
 solidly.  Any suggestions or tips?  I have pics, but I'm not sure how to post them safely on here.
