I have an anvil, and a round:



My Father (it was his, no idea from where it came) advised to not mount the anvil down, lest you be tempted to beat things harder than they deserved. I never did. It is steel, not iron, has no markings on it, and is not all that user friendly in shape, long and narrow. Ive started pins moving or going home with it, and that is about it.

The round is a 3 1/2 round by 5 section of 4140 chromoly solid, that doubles as a door stop, when I need to move some air through the shop.

As Ive gotten older, I have fewer uses for either, and fewer things that need more than a light love tap with a small ball peen.

Best,
Ted
