It’s a shame UA-cam has such a recency bias that good videos like this get lost 😞 Anyway, nice project and well presented, thanks! ⚒

Thank you, Dennis. I learn so much from your videos.

They used to make anvils in continental Europe that had a crowned face right next to the horn, supported by the base unlike the horn-I think it’s called a rhino anvil. They also made anvils with a sloped side on the edge of the face to help protect it from chipping (church windows anvils). They figured out a long time ago that neither the flat face nor the horn are ideal for drawing out metal.
