Making a Mobile Anvil Stand | 265lb Fisher Anvil + 200lb Base

[@trhni-si]

Špatný. Spousta materiálu a práce k ničemu. Pod kovadlinou má být špalek. Né bedýnka na posypový materiál. Not good. A lot of material and work for nothing. There should be a log under the anvil. Not a box for sprinkling material.

[@skullandspade]

What a wonderful attitude. In fact. It works great. 2 years of forging/moving and 0 issues. Not a good comment. A lot of words and typing for sharing an opinion. Comment boxes not for trolls. Go make something.

[@lesliemcafee2957]

I had to squelch several, “how does he know...?” throughout the video. The music, at dawn on a Sunday morning, was yummy. The ad for wrinkle reversal cream that popped up in the middle, not so much. How dare they! Amazing work. Love, Mom

[@skullandspade]

HAHAHAHAH! Targeted!

[@freespam9236]

few more anvil stands and you could probably hold a sheet of plywood on top of them :D

[@skullandspade]

I think you're right. Need more anvils.

[@dinobuddy]

Big thumbs up to Brett. The projects are, of course, fantastic, but the amount of work that goes into producing his videos is unbelievable. Some of us definitely notice and appreciate the effort!

[@skullandspade]

Thank you!!!

[@samambrotv]

You're not only a maker, but you're an artist. Your aesthetic is unique.

[@skullandspade]

Thank you for that!

[@willburke]

I never thought I would be able to tell a possessed skull could narrow it's eyes in suspicion via subtitles until now. Also great project!

[@skullandspade]

HAHAH, she's reeeeaaaaal scary like that.

[@larsokland]

This video left me both relaxed and inspired, which is the vibe your videos seem to install in most of your audience. You´re definitely doing something right, and I sincerely hope you´re really enjoying the journey we are following along with you!

[@skullandspade]

Thank you as always Lars. I am enjoying this adventure, and hope all that join in do as well

[@brianewhiteguy]

This is what KZbin makers should strive for. Absolutely outstanding work on the project AND the video!!

[@skullandspade]

Thank you very much Brian!

[@BrothersMake]

It looks like every problem can be solved with an anvil stand! Make them all the same height then chuck a butcher block on top and your laughing! Lovely work mate

[@skullandspade]

I love that idea. Most stable base ever.

[@InsideAlan]

Funny looking workbench.

[@skullandspade]

RIGHT?!

[@eviltwinx]

Dang Brett! You did it again. You keep feeding the maker in me with the “I gotta try that!”.

[@skullandspade]

DO IT!

[@rpower1401]

I built a smaller version of your design for my 132lb anvil. This past weekend I acquired a 308lb London pattern anvil and now expect to do a near copy of your design for a second time :) Thanks for the video.

[@skullandspade]

Hell yeah!!!

[@rpower1401]

@@skullandspade Yep, built 3 of these type bases now after having acquired a post type anvil. Converted the 132 lb anvil into a treadle hammer with the original base left intact. See my videos if you like.

Cheers brother. Stay well.

I've just made an anvil stand too! Good to see other approaches. Especially how different are the anglo-saxon and central-european anvil stands, layout of blacksmith shops and blacksmithing in general Thanks for sharing!

[@skullandspade]

Thank YOU for watching Mark!

[@FigmentsMade]

Everything's a workbench? Or something... It's a fantastic addition to the ship shop! Totally fits your aesthetic while doing all the things. And of course the rope! Beautiful.

[@skullandspade]

The floor is just a workbench with no legs.

[@FigmentsMade]

Brett McAfee And we are using foot clamps all the time.

You really nailed it. Pun intended. Love the stand, all its features, and the music, Brett. I imagine it will look better and better with use, too. Thanks for sharing!

I love your choice of music, I also love your aesthetic, it's right up my alley. This video, plus a morning coffee was a great start to my day.

[@skullandspade]

Kind words...cheers Matthew. Keep on makin'

[@FeatherForge]

An sorry Brett you’ve got a duff anvil there. You’re going to have to post it over to me for suitable disposal. Stand looks good though. 👍👍

[@skullandspade]

Ah, that's fair. I'll throw some bubble wrap on it and chuck it your way.

[@FeatherForge]

Brett McAfee Good man. I’ll swap one of mine for it. No really, I’d love a bigger fisher. I’ve got a 100lb Fisher but they’re rare as hens teeth over here. I know of 4 in the U.K. All the best bud.

Well it really is a blacksmiths workbench. So you're definitely correct on calling it a workbench. Looks good. Without the anvil you could use it as a trashcan or a coal bucket.

At the very least, there should be a "0" after that 5 in the subscribers count Captain. The pieces you produce with common tools shows that it can be done, and cone wonderfully. You truly inspire me brother. And that squeeze-box musical accompaniment was spectacular! Thank you Brett...honest.
