I think the anvil is a salesman model to highlight the bigger versions features. Anvil distributors and salesman had a selection of miniatures to show customers. Not sure but I think that is what you have. Great video thanks!
Very well could be, Rich. My grandfather doesn’t remember where he got it but when I showed it to him all painted and finished he was happy it had been brought back to life ❤️
That vise looks really nice. What green did you use? That color is nice. As for shaking up the paint, I’ve been using an electric paint sprayer (not the airless kind) and I really like it. I just stir the paint, add a catalyst to it, thin to the necessary consistency and spray away. It leaves a much better finish than I’ve been able to get with cans. Also personally, I just took the roll pin out and removed the paddle switch.
I painted it Rustoleum Hunter Green with the 2X gloss. I could see taking the roll pin out as it is kind of annoying for prolonged usage. Will consider that! I also have never tried and electronic or air sprayer, perhaps that should be a future purchase!
@@HeyDerFolksI got a cheap one off of Amazon and the finish is better than I expected it to be. I mostly got it so I could use 2 part paint without going broke but now I just use it for everything besides really small stuff. Airbrush might be better for that. If I still had the paddle I would probably keep it but remove the safety lock thing on it. That was the main thing I didn’t like about it

I bought it to trim my horses hooves. Works great!
Would've never thought of that, very cool!
Useful information well done. Go Bills!

Great job!

Good video, I was so happy when you put the mask on. Who knows what's in that old paint.
Ya, very sketchy. Need to upgrade my PPE game for sure
Nice video and it looks amazing
Thanks!
Can anyone hold it and it just won’t go? Mine bogs down with little to no load and just want a double check before returning. brand new
I’d return, I haven’t had any issues with me (admittedly, small sample size)
$75-100 took only on eBay all day so I bought 2
