- Since I lost my old Anvil, I decide to make another one out of rusted Railroad track. It was not easy to make such perfect Anvil only with common tools. I put all my skills and desire to make this beautiful Anvil.

No milling machines no special equipment, just few simple tools in my hands and Ton of work.
Here is the most easy way to make your own quality anvil.

Молодец.Уважаю.Я так старый топор оживил.
I didn’t forget
After all that hard worke and I must say we'll done but this is not an anvil its just something that looks like an anvil
@@mick1gallagher it is hardened steel, it will work mostly :P
@@TohGahr yes but drop a hammer on that rail road piece and drop a hammer on on a real anvil and see the difference in the bounce and the difference in the sound along the anvil it's very good but still not an anvil
This video is a testament to the power of the simple angle grinder. If you wanna get into knife making, it's one of if not the best tool you can have. Grinding belts are expensive and homemade ones joined with flex tape work but aren't ideal. A lot safer though. I'm fortunate to have a lot of access to oxy and a cutting torch so I don't have to spend hours hogging out material, but I really appreciate the initiative. Railroad track is usually made of low carbon and (relatively) high manganese content for easy continuous casting and hot rolling. The surface of used track is usually work hardened because of the manganese, but you seem to have ground off the hardened case. I can't tell exactly what you're working with but it wouldn't hurt to forge weld a piece of leaf spring steel to the work surface. In this case, forge welding is easier than stick welding. Forge them together and let them anneal in the forge overnight. Heat them back to austenizing temp and quench in oil then temper to light blue. A blue spring temper is really all you need.
I respect your effort mate.I restore only a rusty hammer and I know how hard it was to make it shine.Golden hands you have .Be blessed .
Beautiful work mate, to nice to use!
I bet your neighbours just loved the sound of that angle grinder,
not to mention the cost of discs!
Great job just the same.
You should market this as an award for railroad companies to buy. This craftsmanship is amazing! You REALLY do have something here. Take that idea and run with it!
I like that you polished the striking surfaces, and painted the support. Looks really good, and that's a perfect size for the average person working in their garage. Very useful item you made.
Amazing tools that can cut and shape such a heavy and thick iron track.
But the biggest applause goes to the person doing this job so perfectly!! He is a superb craftsman!!
Hats off to his skill !!
Appreciate you showing how you did this using one basic angle grinder (WITH the guard on the whole time), and some files. It may have taken a while but most railroad track anvil videos you find feature massive angle grinders, milling machines, and fancy metal bandsaws. Since I possess none of these items, I had resigned myself to my piece of railroad track just remaining in its railroad track-form and forging on that, but you have inspired me to take a stab at reshaping it into a better anvil!
That looked like it wasn't easy,as you stated in the beginning. However, that little anvil turned out beautiful. Most definitely a labor of love. Appreciate you posting this video. Excellent transformation! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Wow, what a work of art. I don't think I would even use that for blacksmithing. I would just display it in my shop. That is allot of skill you carry in your hands.
I don't think his name is Art-
It is pretty
I need that! I used to use a piece of train track in the past, it’s fairly useful but this looks to nice to use. Good job
Watched this video start to finish with absolute amazement! The level of skill and craftsmanship this dude possesses is off the friggin scale!
I did this very thing last year and made an anvil. The hardest part of making it was drilling out the hole for the Hardy hole. It was a lot of fun!
I made a RR track anvil couple years ago. Most used anvil in shop. The sharp pointed horn is so useful. Shame nearly all antiques have blunted horns, but I understand why. They break off, then you round the end. Some blunted the tip before it breaks off.
Доброго здоровья мастер! Восхитительное упорство, целеустремлённость, трудолюбие и мастерство! Всех Вам БЛАГ!👍👍👍
Наковальня блеск! Будет чем жене огурцы надавливать 😁
@@user-hs9bn6qy1i, ну что Вы? Креозот крайне не полезен для здоровья, да и черный металл ( хоть и блестящий) в агрессивной среде не добавит огурцам изысканного вкуса. Пропаренный булыжник наше все.😀
Да мастер молодец и мышку покормил и наковальну сделал!!!
@@user-cr6ml2xx8m What the heck is steamed cobblestone
@@snipermanxx1558 Russian traditions of pickling cucumbers 😁
Like most master crafsmen, you make this look easy, but we all know just what an enormous task this must have been.
Well done.
Approximately how many cutting wheels did you use for this project?
I'd say about 50 to 75 and using those cut off wheels for angle grinding is dangerous if it was to break
@@peterrivney552 angle grinder is most versatile and dangurus tool in the workshop.
@@peterrivney552
Is there a power tool that ISNT dangerous if it breaks ?
Maybe stick to something safer mate , .
Like knitting
Yes
all of them
Phenomenal work, my man. Goes to show what the versatility of an angle grinder, and a lot of elbow grease can do. Thumb'd & subbed.
One of the most amazing pieces of railroad track, a piece that does not rust at the ends.
I think it’s really good that you do this stuff because people think it’s to hard but when I watch your videos I realise that I’m just using the wrong technique keep up the good work
Just a gorgeous result! Fantastic work.
This illustrate nicely how valuable an angle grinder such as used here can be in every homework shop. It has many uses that you are always finding for it..
Maravilhoso !
Não dá coragem de usar .
Serve como peça decorativa .
Parabéns pelo lindo trabalho .

That's absolutely incredible. You have something that you should always be proud of.
This very amazing Anvil 🤩your hard work pays off this rusty railroad that you turn into an amazing Anvil 👍👍👍
I've had this yard long piece of rail now for a few years, you just pushed me over the edge mate. Thanks!
The hardest part about doing this is keeping the top flat. Its extremely easy to dish out the top or create a hump. You did a good job keeping it flat!
This tiny anvil is so cute! Can't wait to see you use it in your next videos...
An absolute work of art! Beautiful!
WOW. Absolutely fascinating! Beautiful work with a few hand tools. Now, that's talent! I can only wonder what this handmade anvil would be worth.
that anvil looks so nice, i don't think anyone would metalwork in that 😂
Super tare 👍👍👍👍👍👍
A lot of hard work and obvious creativity. Beautiful end result. Bravo!

Very nice!! A lot of hard work a ten minute video can't portray properly. You are a craftsman, a rare breed nowadays.
Dam dude, your a beast!!! What an awesome job u did, the craftsmanship is beautiful, u are a great artist and I enjoyed watching the process of this!!! Thx! Keep making cool stuff and I'll keep watching!!👍👍👍
This is the best creative and forging perfect channel that i ever watch , with no dialogues , no special machine , only a guy with many full free time can do this
Wow! That's an absolutely beautiful Anvil! That's like a piece of Artwork in itself, in addition to being a really useful metalworking tool.
Great video - Nicely Done!
Really nice job, more like a piece of art than an implement.
Very nice! Your patience with the hacksaw is amazing.
That is art, thank you for sharing!
Outstanding work!! … I would never have the time to get this done… Much less have it appear anywhere near as nice as your anvil… You should build more and sell them!
Just came across your video
And I must say that anvil is a beautiful piece of Art.! My hats off to you. Just beautiful
Gorgeous. Watching this made me miss my uncle and hanging out in his workshop as a little girl so much. Everything in me wanted to call and ask him to make me one.
Wow, very nice job, thanks
I think my angle grinder would die on me during a build like this and I would go through dozens of disks
That turned out beautiful, but that is a lot of work to create such a masterpiece.. thx for bringing us along... Take care my friend and God Bless you and your family...
Looks so modernized and gorgeous
Good working keep it up thanks for sharing your experience Long live happy with your family and friends
Stunning I'd display it differently a talking point brilliant and top quality from a very talented person 🇬🇧 uk
Excelente muito bom gostei demais !
Great job. I just picked up one of those rails. This give me something to shoot for.
Awesome work and a beautiful outcome. What I want to know is, how many grinding discs did you end up going through😂
That's exactly what I thought. Hundreds! 🤣
Also more money in discs than cost new small anvil. 😂😂😂
It is really amazing and economically advantageous.🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ I'm not even talking about that hard work.🙈
My thoughts exactly!!!
I thought about that and why polish the working surface only? Will be ruined from first use ^^
Przepiękne jest to z tory kolejowej kowadło zrobione pozdrawiam twórcę tego filmiku 👍👍👍👍
Love the sound that rings off of that type of steal.
A man whose ability to transcend numb hands and aching forearms has produced a work of art.
Unbelievable!!!! The human determination is truly a remarkable thing!
That was amazing craftsmanship end result is a beautiful anvil never saw one that nice. Thanks for sharing
Very nice. That's definitely what you call a labor of love; emphasis on the labor!
Đã là fan thì mãi mãi là fan😉💗
Nagyon szép munka! Én sajnálnák dolgozni rajta! Ezt a darabot ki kellene múzeumban állítani! Gratulálok!
5:41 Aaaw a cute little mouse 🐭🐁🥰😍
amazing job of patience! Great one!
Beautiful, gorgeous, even artistic work.
So beautiful that It would deserve a heat treatment on the next episode.
AMAZING PATIENCE, AND A FANTASTIC RESULT. WOULD,NT HAVE THOUGHT IT POSSIBLE.
great skills there, well done. it certainly is a beauty
This might be my favorite one from your channel
This is a massive effort, beautifully overworked where with a whole lot less effort on finish it would still serve the same pracitcal purpose as an anvil. Visually satisfying result
Absolutely brilliant piece of workmanship, really interesting video. Unfortunately here in the UK a piece of railway track large enough to make an an anvil is prohibitively expensive. Loved the video.
Ihre Geduld ist beneidenswert. Sehr schön ist es geworden, in die Vitrine damit, nicht in die Werkstatt. Wieviel Trennscheiben haben Sie verbraucht? Gratuliere!
You made an old piece of railroad track into an Anvil piece of art. I wouldn't want to hammer anything on it. I'd rather display it. Nice craftsmanship.
Just the sight of you sawing the rail with a hacksaw made my hands feel sick, the steel in the rails is extremely strong, I can’t even imagine how much effort you spent on it 4:05-4:20
Al that work making it look beautiful and you couldn't be bothered to get all the rust off before panting it!
That anvelt looks so nice and polished that I would not even use it . I would just leave it as decoration 👍🏻🩷
Beautiful job, a true craftsman you are. Thank You
Utterly gorgeous ....thank you
Fanstastic work 👏👌 thanks my friend👍👍
sometimes, it’s ok to invest in better tools like plasma cutters and/or industrial bandsaws. LOL! halfway through and seeing you use the hacksaw, I literal yelled “BRUH…”
And that’s followed by “…I USE ONLY SIMPLE TOOLS!!!!!!!” text across the screen, and I fell out of my seat laughing.
This was an exercise in determination; but regardless, the anvil came out beautifully.
Bravo! Very well done.
Молодец отличная работа, сколько труда и терпения
Интересно сколько расходников потратил
Its 2.30 in the morning and I am watching this ?? Oh Boy !
Just a heads up for anyone watching you actually get a more practical railroad track anvil by mounting it in its end. You want as much solid iron or steel as possible directly underneath your hammer the orientation shown in this video will feel springy and make you work a lot harder to get the same amount of work done.
Very nice job well done, This is what I like to see stuff made like this with no milling machines and the like, I for one do not have that type of equipment in my workshop well done again.
This guy is great. I might try blacksmithing sometine
The anvil looks great!
How many hours did it take to complete this anvil? It’s beautiful! Thanks
a work of art in itself, beautiful👌👍
It's a beautiful piece of work...
Well done.
Sensacional guerreiro!! 🤔😃👍👏👏
予め置いてあったかの様に断面が綺麗ですね
Congratulations. You were persistent and you certainly went to great lengths to arrive at this perfect anvil. Better than the ones available to buy.
Grandiose Arbeit!
Respekt
I admire your patience and determination bro. Me as 20 years in fabrication I went through every posible way I could've done that faster. But I get your concept. Your dying to get carpal tunnel in your hands. 🤣🤣
Wow that is amazingly awesome beautiful work 👏 perfection .
Wow! That's too pretty to actually beat on. It's more of a show piece. Nice job.
A hand hacksaw on a railroad tie is the antithesis of fun.
How lucky to find a freshly cut piece of rail track in a pile of old steel! ;-)
Fantastic job, Anvil looks amazing and great polished finish. Thanks for sharing.
Человек скульптор.Не мои слова:ОН БЕРЕТ КАМЕНЬ И ПРОСТО УБИРАЕТ ЛИШНЕЕ
Fantastic result well done
Brilliantly done!
