A cross-post from the Garage Gazette...

QuoteI'd been watching this cute little anvil for a week or two. The ask price had gone from $45 to $39 but I decided I'd own it if the seller would accept $30. I emailed my offer, and he quickly replied that it was good!








Now, it is cast iron, so this is nothing you'll find a blacksmith bashing away on, but I will doubtlessly use it for small jobs and have wished for just such a thing in the past...

Thanks, Jim.

That "huge" Gray hammer on the right is 4oz. (to put things in perspective)...

Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

Nice score!!  I especially liked the little 2 oz. Blue Point.  Would it be for sale?

I'm afraid not, Mike; it's the only 2oz. I have...

If I come across another, I'll let you know!

Thank you!

In this modern, digital world, I still have two "record" collections. This is one:



The tiny No. 11 anvil has joined a No. 5 vise, the smaller No. 100 vise that lives on my truck (bolted to a piece of 2"x10" for on-the-road deployment) and 24oz. and 16oz. ball peens from the Bahco Record Marples era...
