Thank you, be safe, and be grateful.
On particularly tough days, today being one of them, your videos help me find peace. Can't wait to see what you'll teach us next.
Hope you're finding a lot of peace, jacob.
Hopefully those tough days have become few and far between man!
Amen to that Jacob
Your videos consistently are well produced, packed with knowledge, and cut with dry humor. Great stuff! Thanks for your (and your team's) work!
Ive watched many anvil restorations, and I must say this is the best in my opinion. Straight to the point info and visual success.
Great video. I have watched all of your videos in my spare time which is not much between work, church, family etc... I have to come learn more from you. Thank Pres. Craftsman :)
That was Great!! I appreciate your passion and the ability to bring old anvils back to life. I'm glad I've found your channel. I'm looking forward to getting into blacksmithing!!
Nice work... looks like new! I have seen a number of anvils that were repaired this way that turned out really bad.
Thanks for the video...
I'd be proud as hell to have that anvil in my shop. Fine work. I know this is an old vid but please keep up the great videos!
As always, very interesting and informative. I recommend your site to people frequently. Thanks for the dope.
Its always a pleasure to watch anything you do, you're very knowledgeable about many things and very humble. Thank you, found the video very helpful!
Of all the anvil restoration projects I've seen, this is by far the best. You took heat and type of electrode in to consideration and that anvil deserves at least that.
Sir, you make the only videos I watch from start to finish. Every time I watch,I learn so much. Thank you for these lessons.
Beautiful! Nice to see someone that knows the proper way to use a grinding stone. Seen so many get ruined/less effective in 2 minutes. Thanks for your videos. You are an Essential Craftsman!
Beautiful! Love your videos. I'm a mechanic who starts out with the basic essentials. Makes me feel like I should dig out my blacksmithing equipment and start practicing making and repairing iron.
I'm thoroughly impressed with you knowledge of your subject matter, and your love for things old and rustic. Keep em coming my friend!
your children and grandchildren are really lucky to have a man like you close buy with such an abundance of knowledge and great drive to teach. I really enjoy your videos you have a relaxing voice that I don't get tired of hearing and talk when you need to an work when it's time to work. great job I always look forward to new videos
You're a god send. I've learn more from you in the past week then I've learned in the last 10 years.
Thank you for this!!!
I have a beautiful old Arm & Hammer that's in great shape (face still very flat and free of dents) but the edges are so worn. Not chipped, just rounded away and uneven. It makes fullering a pain, and I've been wanting to repair it. This video gives me confidence that it can be done!
Love your videos!! keep em coming! I discovered an anvil in a salvage yard wasting away. it turns out it is a Trenton, from 1906. 188 lbs and i am trying to restore it. your guidance has helped!
I love your work and how much you put into it.! I never see you do anything half ass always looks like your putting your full effort into whatever your working on. I love it keep the good content coming!
Finally got my hands on a 1800s mousehole 100 lber this morning! I've been in search of one that was in decent condition for a while now and I finally found one with a nice flat face, the horns intact, one nice and crisp Edge, and one radiused Edge, all feet intact, and the heel is not chipped! Much thanks to you and your videos my friend! I've taken a lot of your advice on what to look for we want to pass on. Then without patience and your expertise helping me along, this would not have been possible. Couldn't be happier. Thanks a lot E C 👍
Very good job on the restoration of the Anvil. I remember watching the video of when you brought that yellow anvil home. I am going to pick up an American Wrought Anvil tomorrow, about 136 lbs.
thank you for this video I've got an old anvil that needs some edge repair and you answered many questions that other videos did not.
Excellent work, showing patience in the process, and the subsequent payoffs.
Great job. I just noticed this and hesitated before watching as I need to repair my Peter Wright anvil in the same manner and was wondering what rod would work best. I thought 7014 would work but be soft. Thanks for the pre heat step as well. Now all I need is a welder and torch set which I once had but no longer posses. Such is life. I guess it's time to find a good welder ( person). Great video.
wow. that is amazing. just looking at the weld it looks like you are very experienced. great job on that restoration.
I want to thank you. I followed your advice on telling the most people when you are looking for an anvil and after 3 weeks, one was given to me. It was sitting in a barn, gathering rust. 115 pounds of memories! lol I'm picking it up next week!
Absolutely amazing work. Love watching your videos. I want an anvil so bad.
This is Absolutely a fantastic video!!! I repaired a beat to death, cracked heel, worn through the face plate into the wrought, old Trenton. I used Amtec Railtec rod for filler, Amtec 64 rod (no more than 4 passes) for hard surface and edges. It is holding up well. I am not savy enough to have video'd the process. I am told by purists that I reduced the collector value of my anvil. Your method of stagger-spacing the weld lines is genius. I wasn't smart enough to do that and simply stopped after 2 inches to let the whole thing cool. It took forever!!!!
I so appreciate your channel and thank you for taking the time to share your craftsmanship with us!
All the Best
Kevin King from Fayetteville Arkansas.
Wow you do beautiful work. I am just starting to get my things together to start Blacksmithing and only have a RR track for an Anvil but I keep looking!!
Good Job my friend!!
Love your videos... I'm at the 'looking for my first anvil phase of my love for blacksmithing' and your videos have helped tremendously. I am currently trying to decide between 3 different used anvils I have found and am in the process of building my forge. I currently am leaning towards a propane forge. What are the pros/cons of gas fired vs coal fired?
Incredible video. Thank you.
Good job Scott on the reconditioning of that anvil face. Congratulations to Jake for wining the anvil giveaway competition well deserved winner to at that.
I'm very grateful that i found this channel. Entertaining and informative.
well done, I like the # 10 can use for elbow support. Thanks
More comprehensive and accurate knowledge. Really enjoying this channel!
Just wonderful , learning video my Dad worked in a pipe mill , and fatherlaw in the Republic Steel open heartsteel mill.
Beautiful job! You are very skilled and talented.
I just want to say thank you for the great education I receive every time I watch one of your videos
That outtro track was a certified slapper my guy. You're keeping that acoustic folk vaporware on dolo, family. And that's for the str8 success my guy. Very clean!!!
As always great job well done! Now I can start my project on my Peter Wright anvil! Thanks
WOW! Seriously, what great craftsmanship! I salute you sir! Subbed!
Good looking anvil. Stoody makes many different products just know your base material and the desired results and go to work. Thanks for another excellent video.
Excellent! Well done restoration!
Beautiful job, thanks for taking us through this
Very nicely done, Sir!
I just love all the thing you have show me how to do in my shop Thanks.
Damn, nice work. I am 42 and when I lost my father it was losing my go to guy when I had a problem or question during a build. Your videos are quality, your shop is amazing and watching you is like watching my dad in a way. Good work and thanks for the videos.
Fantastic workmanship!
What a superb restoration, good to see.
Man was I excited for this video. I've been tormenting over wether or not I should recon my hay budden. the edges aren't too terribly chipped or broken the face is just awfully beat up and nowhere near flat. After this I think I may just dress it a little and clean it up well. Thank you for another awesome video. Can't wait for the next one! Oh, and tell your boy he's done a great job so far as well!
hardened plate unfortunately.
I am a huge fan please come out with more videos on carpentry your skilsaw video is why I ordered a mag 77 (which by the way is an amazing tool. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
excellent instructional. Thanks.
Thanks for the educational video!
Beautiful repair work!
Great video! Thanks for posting this!
Wonderful work!
Fun to watch! Thanks!
As always a pleasure to watch.
Pleasant advice Thank You!
Nice job!! My Vulcan need some of that. Someday when it's worse I guess I'll try it. Never seen it done until here, many thanks.
Nicely Done!
Awesome job sir. New subscriber here, a lot of great content. I’m glad you’re on our side!
Beautiful job. Someone will be glad to purchase this from you.
Looks super fresh. Good job 😄
EC, I love the videos. I recently bought my first house and am interested in setting up a small shop in the garage. I realize I'll want a vise but have no idea what qualities to seek. How about a new video talking about vises and what to look for in an old one?
So informative , this video is exactly what I needed. I recently picked up an old anvil and the edges are broken plus the rear of it is completely broken off and missing. I could use some advice on what type of steel to use to weld on the missing section. I thought about using some A 36 mild steel 1" plate stacking them for width and welding it on, but now I'm thinking it might be too soft. Some advice would be greatly appreciated.
Very nice job. Best i have seen in a while.
Nice work, I really love when people bring a bad anvil back into working shape
Thanks for posting your video.
Nice job on the anvil repair!!!
I hope one day I am a third as skilled as you are. A very impressive restoration.
nice work. looks great!
Great Job Fella'.
very informative. thank you
Wow you brought it back. Nice video
nice repair
Looks awesome, nice work. Doesn't seem to be much you can't do. That anvil will make a pretty nice addition to the forge.
A
wesome. Im from Germany and I love collecting old anvils. very intresting video.
Very cool..thank you
Looks great
Beautiful great job! 👍🏼❤️🇺🇸
Great job! Good video!
love your channel. Similar to a old steeple jack/back yard mechanic here in the UK call Fred Dibnah. if you've not heard of him check him out of you have time. that man, like yourself, was extremely skilled in many different trades. his back yard in Bolton was something to behold and is now a museum of his life. Great channel. inspiring stuff.
Mighty fine job.
Wow great job on the repair, looks great, now back to craigslist so I don’t miss out on an anvil!
Great video. I'm still on the lookout for a decent anvil myself. Not a lot to find in the greater Phoenix area.
You inspire me to learn the Blacksmithing trade. Keep up the informative video's.
Beautiful.
Nice repair!
I'll take one! Nice production, I really enjoy the videos. Keep doin what youre doin!
I have so much respect for you man.
That looks very good nice work as always bud
Looks good!
well thanks a lot, I have a 1830ish armitage mouse hole that is in great shape. however it could use an edge sharping. now I have a new project to do. as if I needed another one. great video thanks.
You are a wizard with your tools!
Beautiful work. Im currently making a 200 pound anvil out of a few forklift forks. That is some tough steel whatever it is. Takes about an hour for 1 cut. Im styling it after german anvil design. Then ill just use an end cut on a plate for an upsetting block and stepface so i dont marr up the face. Just hoping it wont be too hard to weld with a 220 mig setup
you are an artist, sir
Beautiful job.
Amazing channel you have here.
Nice work
