I sprang for this: http://www.harborfreight.com/55-lb-rugged-cast-iron-anvil-69161.html
was gonna build one from railroad rail but this is beefier and $80 something. Only thing missing is pritchel.
Do you think it would be worth it to try and drill one? Looks like face might be hardened and I didn't want to do a half-assed job.
I'm thinking maybe make a pritchel hole in a square steel, harden it and place it in the Hardy?
I'm just getting started in blacksmithing.
FIrst thing I think I'll try my hand out at is making blacksmithing tools and things to go in the Hardie
