If you have any questions on this please contact me and I can go over the details and the specifics on the anvil you are buying. There are a small percentage of my latest shipment of 260# Classic anvils that will require some casting clean up. Built to carry multiple mirrorless systems, lenses. A hundredweight (abbreviated cwt.) is actually 112 pounds. Designed to achieve the perfect balance between weight and protection. The first digit indicated the number of whole hundredweight's, the second indicated the number of quarter hundredweight's and the last number indicated the number of pounds remaining. The vast majority of the anvils require very little work. Anvils were weighed according to the British system of measurement. One of the reasons the anvils I sell are such a high quality value is that I leave it to the customer to dress the anvil (radius the edges, chamfer the hardy hole if desired and do a small amount of cleanup that is associated with a casting of any kind). You will have some clean up work to do in order to make the hardy hole one uniform size in some of the 260# anvils in my latest batch, to meet off the shelf tooling requirements. Anvils similarly need some dressing as well. Usually a new hammer has to have the edges radiused and the peen needs to be ground to blunt the sharp edges on it. This is similar to dressing a new hammer. Most new anvils require some degree of dressing and clean up by the first owner of the anvil. Those of us who have only experienced used anvils, assume that a good, clean used anvil arrived in it's present condition when first delivered to the first owner. Using this rule yields the following values: 50 anvil 2.5 max weight of hammer, 100 5 hammer, 200 10, 500 25 (or 2 strikers each wielding a 12 sledge.) Apply this to an 8 sledghammer set in 100 of concrete and it becomes pretty evident what it should be able to handle. To put this in perspective, most new anvils require some degree of dressing by the first owner. If buy off the shelf steel and weld you hardy tools, this will impact you. If you forge your hardy tools from old truck or car axles this should not have any impact on your tooling. These are cast steel anvils and there is some degree of variation in the 260 lb Classic anvil's hardy size. The depth is over one inch deep.Dimensions of hardy holes in some of the 260 # anvils may vary by up to 1/8". These can be used as swedges to make vessels, goblets, and for other types of jobs that require a swedge. Note: If you look at this Austrian style anvil it has what are called "Church Windows". Two-horn anvils have upsetting block but not auxiliary horns. These anvils supplied in a variety of weights and sizes. All Peddinghaus anvils are of the German style in which the horn cuts directly into the body of the anvil. You will actually get much more precise holes using the bolster block. These anvils are the last drop forged anvils made today.
You then place the bolster block over your hardy hole and your ready to accurately punch holes until your heart's content. A bolster block is nothing more than a 3"x5"x 3/8" piece of mild steel that drill or punch a variety of holes in. In place of a pritchel hole most smiths will make a bolster block. On the "Smaller Austrian Anvils" page you can see a photo of a blacksmith making a scroll on the face of an anvil that looks very similar to the ones I offer. For more information, custom orders, or questions. This type of anvil has been used for centuries on the continent of Europe. 26.7K subscribers I simply explain the English hundredweight system, and how you can find the weight of an English anvil. This bench allows you to radius part of the offside face of the anvil and can function as a fuller for drawing out and bending hot steel. They don't have a pritchel hole, but do offer an offset face that has a kind of bench that runs along for part of the face. They look similar to a London style anvil but have several important differences. The single horn anvils come in a variety of weights from 180 pounds up to 556 pounds.
