    Picked this up outside eBay lol, It needs a good amount of TLC Needs top decking and horn dressing possibly hardy hole edges building up and a stand of course, Thinking the stand should put the top of Anvil about 29″ high as I’m just under 6′ !!.







    As you can probably see it’s had a rough old life, I think it was used over a 100 years maybe more,

    Done a little bit of cleaning starting to look good,

    Filling some of the big corrosion holes with Mig as it hard and quicker then grinding the whole anvil,
    Some Before and After shots! when I remember to take them LOL,

    Stand Now Painted, It took some time to get the top of the Anvil level as the anvil is very miss-shaped

    Completed Anvil with stand Castors and chain to stop the ringing and it works,
