1940s Fisher Anvil Restoration - Making an Anvil Stand.
I restored "1940s Fisher-Norris anvil and making an anvil stand in the video. "Made in U.S.A." Fisher-Norris was the first large scale manufacturer of anvils in the U.S, found in 1843. They used a patent process that welded a tool steel plate onto a cast iron body in the mold when the anvil was cast. Up until this time all good anvils were forged from wrought iron and faced with tool steel that was forge welded to the body.The Fisher process produced an economical and very servicable anvil. They are also much quieter than wrought or all steel anvils which ring like a bell. Fisher-Norris anvils are often called “City Men’s anvil” because they don’t ring. This 100 lbs example was probably made in WW2 era, it doesn’t have the Eagle logo, Fisher stampings or the weight numbers on it. To fasten the production rate, it is possible that they have removed those markings. Don't forget subscribe to my channel and like these videos please. Thank you for watching.

  • Please read to the end or you may misunderstand me. As a Blacksmith, I kept thinking that “ you are making it too pretty to use. Who would ever want to ding that anvil up by actually using it as it was intended. It seemed like a waste of good steel.” But…….as a Craftsman, this project makes my heart swell with appreciation for the skill and effort put into it. It is very pretty and I will just accept it as an object of beauty rather than a tool of industry. Well done, Sir, well done.

  • The metal bands around the stump are suposed to prevent splitting of the stump, but the way you made them won't help. I also think those tiny feet won't last long, if you would use it. In this project you spent a lot of work in unnecessary details, but you didn't care about fuktionality.

    • agreed, entirely cosmetic bands, feet which make it a completely not useable as a working anvil stand. even painting the anvil isnt something you'd do on an anvil being used for actual smithing. but it looks pretty and gets those youtube views... *shrug*

      @Alkivar@Alkivar3 жыл бұрын

    • The metal bands can easily be welded together to fix that problem, the paint has rust inhibiting properties, and although I agree that the feet won’t serve well, I guess it’s a good thing that he made them removable and therefore replaceable. Right? So maybe he was looking ahead for possible other solutions but could only work with what he had available to him at the time? Or maybe he will realize that he needs to adapt to his problems when they appear and fortunately arranged things so that that process will be easier? That’s what I see. If you’re going to look down at people like that, try being a productive and constructive critic who offers answers for your stated problems rather than just someone who picks at things. Both of you. I’m just saying…

  • Really beautiful work. I wish any of my anvils looked this nice. Two small critiques, however. First, the feet you put on the stand, I'm not sure how well those would hold up to the repeated pounding if this anvil was put back in service. And second, the steel bands you added at the top and bottom of the stand make nice decorations, but won't add much to stabilize the wood unless you weld the corners together.

  • Nice job, love the stand. Only a couple nitpick complaints or critique would be the edges of the anvil face need to be rounded or "broken" slightly. The smith using the anvil normally does this to his/her preference though so it's not a big deal as new anvils come with sharp corners or barely chamfered corners. The only other possible complaint is the banding doesn't look like it's been welded into a solid piece? Would be much stronger if if welded and then bolted to the stump. Minor complaints, really nice job.

  • The video was so good I watched it again. It struck me that in 50 years that anvil will still look great. I wish I could say that about me lol.

  • Tip for you with the liquid bluing. Get the metal hot first with a heat gun or torch and blue it like 3x. Finish it off by applying a light coat of motor oil to the blued surface when done. It will come out looking like a hot blued gun barrel.

  • Congratulations on finding and restoring such a lovely anvil and finding such a nice block to mill and mount it on. It looked beautiful and loved the attention to detail. There's only a couple of things I might have changed, as others have mentioned. Welding the metal bands to hold the block together for centuries and leaving off or taking off the adjustable legs so as to distribute the force evenly to the floor, rather than those four small points. It's what the big block it designed to do. I'm sure you'd manage that with the same care :) Beautiful craftsmanship otherwise and a pleasure to watch. I watch too many that don't pay attention to the little details like you and a few others do. Kindest regards and thanks for the upload.
