AN ANVIL FOR A FRIEND

<< < (2/3) > >>

osage outlaw:
What did you use to cut the forks?

Parnell:
Very clever.  A forklift repair shop...hmm.

Greybuff:
I used a water cooled horizontal band saw. Years ago when I was building a power hammer to sell, I cut 5" forks with a horizontal band saw that was not cooled. It takes about 10 minutes to make 1 cut. I used a plasma cutter to cut the shape of the horn.

I also built a striking anvil (also used as a base for an anvil made from forks)  using the short section of 2 - 4" forks welded together. I than took it down to a shop that does water-jetting and had a 1" hardy hole cut in it. If anyone is interested I could ask Kevin to post pics of that anvil.

GlisGlis:
that is pure beauty
your friend is really lucky !!  :OK

bubby:
