    I've been searching for a idea for my anvil. This is the best stand build I have seen anywhere. I love how you blocked the anvil to the stand (I've always been told not to anchor an anvil down solid , that it could cause breakage. I'm definitely going to build mine like yours. THANKYOU for sharing!

    This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection th-cam.com/users/postUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

    I was ecstatic to see this video! But just all so more just happy to see you were back! About a year and a half ago I inadvertently saw a post your wife made on Facebook I commented and was surprised to find out she was your wife. After reading and hearing about all that’s happened I gave her my condolences and told her I hoped to one day see you back doing these incredible projects that you do. I’m so happy to see you back, Will! And you’re right, you’ve got to just keep putting one foot in front of the other and keep going. My father taught me that in my hard times as well. Most of all I hope you and your family are doing well! Great to have you back!👍🏼

    Cleverly designed wheel lift. I was watching and thinking about how bad an idea it is to pound on ball bearing wheels, though the small anvil wouldn’t make that too bad. But when I saw your construction, I realized that wouldn’t be a problem. Very clever.

    excellent demonstration of redhot metals ability to stay still or even bend backwards ....one of the first things I ever made was a scroll over the anvil horn and it kept doing exactly that....took me a while to work out not to hammer it but bend it round instead ...I remember my mentor winking at me when he saw I had worked it out (I wasnt very old)...it looked terrible but it did spiral ....he hung it in the what can we do better next time corner of his forge, There were some things of his in there which made me very pleased with myself ...

    the idea with the raising casters is great I like that a lot...its a great stand
    Can I just say though please don't use woven gloves around a wire wheel, there is way too much potential for it to catch the fibres of the glove and ride your arm down through the wheel causing some really nasty injuries and definitely spoiling your month.

    3. Doesn't he know that the force will.....
