not leather, but check out my mini BLACKSMITH ANVILS

[anvilcustoms]

I've been building these for several years now. Made from Brass (polished or Patina) and Aluminum (polished). Replicas of ALL major anvil manufacturers from back in the day!!

Have a great week!

Wow, you do nice work. Those look great!

[superchute]

All I can say is vary cool. those are so neat I may have to get me one.

My Dad has one that is old for the from sioux city steel that is about the same size as you make.

Ryan,

Nice, Do you cast them yourself? I've been threatening myself to get into casting, aluminum and brass. I have been collecting pieces parts to build a furnace. I just need to find the time to get it all together.

If you do cast them yourself, would you mind letting me pick your brain at some point?

Very nice work.

Hey Thanks everyone. Yes I do sell them, have been for about 8 years now. They're fun to make, but tedious little suckers.

I do NOT cast them. I have a foundry in IL on the Mississippi River do the casting. Aluminum is ok, but you can really mess things up by melting BRASS. It puts off a HIGHLY toxic fume and is very volital (spelling). Any amount inhaled and cause death or at least land you in the hospital for a spell. Sooooooo.....I decided to let someone else cast and then I do all the tedious dirty work.

Glad you like them.

Oh cool.....yeah Trenton, NJ, home of Fisher--Norris Anvil Manufacturing. Very cool. I've owned dozens and dozens of Fishers over the years. They are good anvils.
