Your stand IS AWESOME, Randy! Beautiful along with functional! Nice work!!
Thank you Reid.
Awesome anvil stand. When you look anvil stand up in the dictionary, there is a picture of this bad boy.
Thank you, I think you are right.👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome, i've learned some tricks from this 😁
Thanks CaLem.
Nice…enjoyed
Thanks Chuck.
Imagine how many parts Wranglerstar could make this into if he did as much work.
Good job Mr. Moustache ;)
Oh yeah. lots of parts in here. Thank you for watching.
It's awesome thanks for the video
Thank you Fred.
Belle enclume et jolie stand, merci pour la vidéo.
Thank you.
that's a great anvil stand
Thank you.
Very nice
Thank you Tony.
.. Nice job ,..
Works great, thank you. Happy New Year
very nice.
Thanks Doug.
nicely done!
Thank you, works great.
Nice little 163lb PR. I have some .035 Stoody Buildup LH left over from when I repaired 7 anvils a while back. If you would like to repair your edges I could mail it to you.
Jere
Yes Jere I think I should. Someone has worked on before. I will give you a call.
ca rend vraiment bien les shimes dans les fentes de la souche !
Meric pour la video.
Thank you, fun build and works great.
Touch of class (@@)! Awesome base to make the anvil really be a show pc & useful tool !! Missed this one during Sammies hospital stay in early May. Bear & Sammie
Thanks Bear, The anvil works great and looks good when it is just hanging out in the shop.
Nice work 👍. Me I would of put the spring lock pin 90 degree's not sticking out. My luck I would introduce the side of my leg into it. Then I'll need a waterproof Band-Aid.😂 looks great better than the steel ones
Wood is always beautiful Oak is the perfect wood as a brit the world was accessible because of oak. Just an observation - we always "girdle" oak in high stress uses, piercing the heartwood transfers the stresses through the block against the grain where a girdle lets the heartwood do it;'s job by soaking impact stress and taking the force with the grain to ground and not across the pins with nowhere to go. Don't make it rigid. if you put it together tight (ish) then pour a few buckets of water on it the wood will fill any pockets to make a perfect fit.
Apparently it's what stop masts breaking and the spar beams and keel shattering rather than absorbing impact shocks.
That said I doubt you'll break it. the top and bottom bands will (even if the cracks complete) keep the pieces together and the grain can take over and do it's job
Traditionally you'd heat fit a riveted "square ring" rim and "wet fit" the gapswater first then allow to dry to the atmosphere then oil to maintain the size without further expanding.
The oil sets it off perfect, I'd have it as a chair-side table.and not get it dirty.
Thank for the great info. Thank you Andy.
I did the same thing Randy. A neighbor down the street had some workers cutting down a live oak tree. I got a chunk of the trunk and trimmed it with the chain saw. It’s awesome. My son looked at me like I was crazy when I was showing it to him. But people like me and you get it. We are psyched every time we look at our anvil and stump.
For sure Tim, this was well worth the time.
Now let's forge something fancy.
yeah
Awesome stand indeed Randy! Love those hidden anchors. Built like an army tank and finished like fine furniture.
The best Anvil stand I've seen
Thank you works great.
Beautiful black oak block. Only have live oaks, pine, and palms that big in this area. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you. A bunch of live oak pieces together would work.
Came out looking Great Randy.
Randy, this is a work of art.
Great anvil stand! I need to make one for my grandfather's anvil... the stump it was mounted on split into 3 pieces. Those bands and hidden nuts are fabulous! I have your dovetail cutter set...love it!
The stand is working great, thank you for your support Jeff.
Absolutely gorgeous stand.
Thank you. Works great.
Randy- That stand is awesome! The wheels to move it around is such a fantastic idea! Well done!!!!!!!!!
Have anvil will travel!! That is one great anvil stand Randy! Good move on upgrading those threaded inserts! Thanks for the video. Now I’m going to have to track down an anvil!!
For sure Jon. This clamp method is very solid and not gaudy.
@@RRINTHESHOP It’s deluxe! A lot nicer than some chains!
@@RightOnJonCrane For sure.
Awesome job Randy! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you Danny
Great job Randy
Thanks Terry.
What a great setup for a mobile anvil Randy, that finish on the oak is beautiful. Enjoyed the build, cheers!
Thanks Howder.
I love it! The handle design is top shelf.
Thanks Greg, this is working out great. Lots of mass and almost doubled the weight. Almost zero ring on the anvil.
Wow!!!
Absolutely beautiful anvil stand Randy! Fantastic work. I really like the idea of using the dowel anchors and also found the walnut and tiger wood insets to really add definition. Wow. Great Job! Thank you for the shout out.
Thank you Phil, no problem.
Looks great and fits in perfectly with your shop.
Thanks Tom.
Nice project!!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you John.👍👍👍👍
Great video Randy! Glad you used square head nut and bolts,just looks right that way imo. You have some great ideas,should be some cool videos upcoming.
👍👍👍👍👍For sure on the square heads. Thanks for watching.😃😃😃😃😃
Your description was spot on Randy that stand is really Awesome. It puts my angle iron one to shame. I'm sure you'll get many years of service out of it plus it looks great.
Thank you Jim. I had to do justice to the anvil.
Very nice Randy! That is one big chunk of wood. I will definitely be watching for part 2 of this project. 👍🇺🇸
Thank you Roger.
now that was an interesting take on the mill...doing a cross grain cut squaring up the block.
Thanks Mike. Works.
@@RRINTHESHOP say Randy, did you get my email regarding the tips blitz for this year? we didn't do one last year and so i thought it might be a good idea to do another this year. that last one brought in quite a few more subs for me than usual
Great job Randy! Only one problem now I'm thinking about my standless anvil
You can do it!
Very nice, Randy 😊. The square head bolts were a nice touch 👍😁👍
Thanks 👍👍👍👍
Off course it looks good. Randy Richard makes everything he does look good. And it is Randy Ricard right as well. I was very curious about that hole at the base of the anvil. I still don't know what an upsetting handle is other than maybe one I might have made and was upset that it looked so bad.
Thanks Harold. Just trying to make it right. You have something to learn now.
Wow, Randy, that looks really great. Nice combination of metalwork and wood butchery! I like the big anchors for the hold down bolts. All the best, Mart in England.
Thank you Mart.
nice looking anvil stand you have there, sir.
Thank you Paul.
I did mine out of laminated 10x10cm boards.It was super easy to do.I left middle a bit shorter on a bottom side so it is more stable .Wood glue holds it without any extra addons.
Best thing with lamination is that its super easy to get top part flat.I was considering adding all threaded rods or steel packing bands around it but that was not necessary.
Nothing wrong with traditional stumps but they are such a pain in ass to get flat.
Thanks.
So will you be doing more blacksmith type work now?
Here and there. Thanks Brian.
That looks awesome! I'd be worried about the screws holding on the handle... I would have put at least 1/4" lag screws. Those look like they'd pull out under that kind of load.
Keep the good stuff coming!
😀
Very nice. I have been thinking of all the ways I can build a stand for my anvil and this is a great way. I hope you don't mind if I copy yours. Great work Randy. Would you believe we got snow last night? I will start when it warms up a bit.
Thanks Randy. Copy away, works great. we should be done with snow until next winter. could use more rain now.
Morning Randy! OK not knowing the difference between a hole in the ground and my 4th point of contact on blacksmithing. But don't you want that Anvil heigth closer to your waist heigth?
Thanks Craig, Recmnd height is at knuckles when standing straight up.
I am concerned the wheels will be too narrow to take it out onto gravel or the ground.
You might want to make the handle a little longer so you don't need to bend over to move it.
Thank you Roy, yes I find these wheels to be a bit soft and narrow. I will be looking for some better wheels.
Can I use a truck axle to make pins for the bucket of a small trackhoe? Thanks for any advice, idk if the pins need to be hard or what the axle is made from..
The pin are usually not hard, so they wear and not the bushings. I would think an axle would work fine.
It's hard to get a block of oak like that for most. Great job!
Thanks.
what is an upsetting block?
It is used to upset the end on a piece of stock to increase the mass at the end. Placed lower than the anvil so it is easier to hammer on the stock. Think on making a ball on the end. Thanks for asking.
How high, in relation to my body, should the top of the anvil be?
Stand up straight next to the anvil, hammer are down , make a fist and your knuckles should touch the top of the anvil. Thanks .
Was your trade an electrician or plumber?
Marine Engineer, A & P certified mechanic, Carpenter, Electrician, there are a few more in there. Thanks for stopping in, Merry Christmas.
so , how did you come up with the height ? thanks
Standing up straight, hammer arm extended down at side with very slight bend in elbow. ground to knuckles is the height. This the height of the anvil top. Thanks.
Yikes, I’m sitting on dining room chairs that aren’t as nice as that anvil stand. I’m eager to see the tray build and how you get its sockets parallel. Surprised you located the handle on the opposite side of the anvil’s horn as the upsetting anvil. Thought you would have put it on the same side to be more or less on center of mass. Insane stand but need FAT wheels the skinny ones look too wimpy for such a fine stand.
I think you need more anvils. Thank you for watching.
Nice work. I may try that on my Peter Wright if I get around to it.
You should!
@@RRINTHESHOP I'm a retired guy repairing flood water damage from 2 years ago. I'm nearly done with the living area and will follow that with doing my shop and utility room The anvil is out in the garage. So much still needs to be done before the anvil. But, all things come with time..
You and I meet at Mr. Pete's home.That was a fun day.
@@donmittlestaedt1117 Oh yeah got to get to the important thing first. Yes Mr.Pete's was a fun day for sure.
