After watching your videos I decided to clean my anvil up enough to read the maker and weight and was pleased to see the words "Hay Budden" 156 lbs. Thank you for all the wonderful videos. You've inspired me to make some big changes in my life. I hope one day to have the honor of shaking your hand. Again thank you sir.
It's probably Cy. I blame Cy... just look at ruclips.net/video/DPfZhxMwrfA/видео.html ! He's a bad influence. Also: Poor anvil! Why not go to HF and get an Anvil Shaped Object instead? This is a usable anvil a lot of people would very happily work with.
SenselessUsername you are missing the point of launching an anvil the anvil takes none to barely any damage and what it signify is all that more Precious that anvil has a story a greater meaning to him due to those moments
LOL, my brother burnt his face (2nd degree) on the 4th of July while playing around with black powder. It was so funny, a white man turned into a red men in a split second, LOL! 🤠
I work with my hands on a daily basis and I love this channel. Great knowledge being spread here, entertaining, and honestly comforting. It's like going and talking to a good neighbor, reminds me of spending time with my dad as a kid with other mechanics, machinists, and other skilled men. Nothing like it.
Scott, I come from a long line of carpenters and craftmen. I was about 3 when dad started taking me to his shop, and the first "project" I built hangs on my shop wall nearly 60 years later. You are the genuine article, and do the best channel on youtube, hands down. Your work and contributions are deeply appreciated.
I have been very, very fortunate to have been given a 204-pound anvil and will be mounting it onto either a log or a based made of laminated sections of logs if I can't find one large enough. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks for the video - a trick my grandfather told me (2nd generation blacksmith & coachbuilder) is to place a sheet of cork between the anvil and block . This enhances the "ring" quality of the anvil and makes the sound when striking the anvil with your hammer so much sweeter ,
i am an old retired auto body repairman,old school. in my day we repaired just about everything.however in the early 1980's they went to hss and hsla steel as i am sure you already know.you are extremly well versed in metal and it,s propterities.i really enjoy your channel.keep up the good work.
Why does a network not pick this guy up? Just baffles me they will invest in a tv show about people who make no contribution to society but yet this fella goes on his own to teach.
TV has a ton of problems and would totally kill most youtuber's spirits. If you want videos decided by committee, manufactured drama, and sponsorships out the whazzo, that's what you get with TV. Here, he's got freedom to do what he wants, how he wants, and can shoot it however he wants. There's no safety officer on set or producer telling him to knock it off with the anvils. Guys like Diresta have been on TV (go look it up, it was ... bad) and still get offers all the time. He declines them all because he doesn't want to give up creative control, and neither should EC. TV is dead.
All these replies are pretty accurate and the reason, this old man stopped watching TV years ago. It has turned to liberal crap and are all about either huggie, feelie ,lets cry together or ass kicking 105 lb. women throwing 6'2" 225 lb. all muscles men, all over the room, like paper dolls.
I'm a newish gal to this channel but I have very fond memories of the anvil my father had in his shop, he was a bike mechanic for many years before moving on to saleperson and finally as a manager of a bike shop but he had an small anvil in the workshop out back for all sort of things that needed one solid piece for hammer work or adjusting frames (before they became more standardized bikes they are today). I've picked up a lot of things from him and thankful for him for as I can knock up a frame, to fix a car, "hard work" and given me that drive to not shy away from it and do my best with my hands, regardless of my gender. I digress, I love watching your videos, including anvil and it brings back all my childhood memories working with my dad.
How to mount an anvil, from the rear of course. Now those bent bars you screwed into the wood, they will rip your leg (shin) wide open if you are not thinking about sharp metal sticking out of the wood. Cover them with something, leather, wood, sheet metal or whatever. Just cover them. Or you could turn the anvil 90 degrees so the horn and heel line up with the brackets. You are less likely to get close to the horn and heel as you are to the sides.
I admire how you have adapted to today’s world, keeping skills alive using a modern format for the world to see, I really appreciate your hard work and efforts in producing this channel, lotsa of appreciation and support from an ol school FNQ Carpenter in Sticky hot Australia 🔨👌🏼👍🏼
Haven't touched a real anvil probably since metal shop in middle school many moons ago (I don't think the small one on my Craftsman vice in the garage counts?) and now I am one of many who will automatically watch any video with EC and anvil in the title-keep up the good work sir! (Now off to my Anvils Anonymous meeting ...)
I'm a retired electrician / machinist, just found your channel today. I have an anvil I need to secure to a log of hickory I picked up at a logging yard. This anvil is small, 80 lbs. Your video was exactly what I needed ! Great job !! Thank you very much.
I wish I was your neighbor. I got a great start from my father in learning things, but soo much was left unfinished in his understanding and left me with a lot of gaps to fill that I’m still working on. Love your channel sir 👍🏻
I've been a class one welder in the UK and Australia for 36yrs and today my wifes gifted me an anvil for my 55th birthday 😊 if I could only subscribe to one channel on here it'd be yours. We need a bit more of you in the world brother, thanks Buddy...
Back in the day I looked for swamp elm for my anvil stand.. It's a very fiberious wood and it's tough as nails. Used it 15 years and it was as sound as that first time I used it all those years later. Thanks for the forge talk, I've missed it as its been a long time sense I've seen a working shop. Samuel Yellin was my inspiration back then. I met his son decades ago and he was a great host showing me around he and his dad's still working forge in Philadelphia.
I have been following you buckin in your blacksmithing setup and watched tour anvil mount vid. I just copied the link to this vid and was going to send it to you!! Then saw your reply!! Haha
Man I love this guy he speaks so well. I work in construction so this guy tickles my fancy. I have never even considered blacksmithing but now I'm Intrigued. Keep up the great work and great material.
I bought a little 25 lbs anvil because of this channel. I didn't need anything big because I am not a blacksmith, but it has come in handy doe some things!
Thank you! I struggled trying to get a level anvil stand. Now I know how to not only make a good stump, but also how to tightly attach the anvil to it. I've tried some methods, but they just didn't work well for me.
Never picked up a hot drift punch... But when I was a young lad I was watching my grandfather cut a piece of wood with a saber saw. The blade broke and fell to the floor. Wanting to help grandpa I immediately reached down and grabbed the piece of broken blade... Instant education. And that little lesson has stuck with me for years.
I used a railroad bridge timber (bigger than regular timber) to mount my 150lb mouse hole anvil. I buried it a foot and a half to two feet deep like a post. Then I used eyebolt with adjustable hooks and screwed it down tight. Worked great.
I grew up with anvils but never gave much thought as to differences in make. When I was back home (Western Montana) last month I took a look. A Henry Wright Dudley Warranted Solid 10(up-side-down 3)6 A Trenton Patent ?U?Y 102 A small Vulcan that always set by the tack room for a quick horseshoe adjustment And a well-made railroad iron anvil None could be considered pristine, but all are in good to better condition. I started making rings out of nails before I was in grade school. I look forward to your next content.
AZ Enginerd I've grown up in and lived my whole life in San Diego. I'm about to move about half an hour north of Missoula at the end of next month and couldn't be more excited
Ironically the day you posted this video I was already trying to think of a good way to cut off some logs level and mount my two anvils. After seeing this I decided it was a good idea and finally got around to it this weekend. Worked great, Thanks.
Dear Essentialcraftsman. After watching many of your great videos on anvils I have been on a hunt for one for my so called shop. Well I found one in Oregon. Once I get it cleaned up I will shoot you a picture. I want to do some research on it. Thanks for bringing back the importance of working with your hands and getting back to the basics of manual labor. Love your channel and all of the information you give to all of us. Bryan
Loved the ending. All grandfathers should have a working usable shop full of the things that make young kids enthused about visiting and most importantly learning, the important things in life, hard work,great tools, and the knowledge to use them. Great video
Many thanks for a very instructional video on how to mount up an anvil on a stump. I am getting ready to do this very thing in a couple days with my own anvil and it sure does help to see how to level the stump. Many thanks!
Just got a anvil and a large section of a oak tree .I have been contemplating just how to saw and mount it the simplest way . Your aprouch seems to be exactly what I was looking for Thank You for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you. I have a large oak stump waiting to get squared up for my #110 Trenton. Your video was a great help. I plan on routing a one half to one inch deep recessed pocket for the base. Love the chain tension hold down.
It makes me happy to see you turn your ratchet 360 degrees. It's handy to have a ratchet for tight spaces, but I always see people cranking on them when spinning is so much faster.
I really like your channel, always interesting and enjoyable. I love your old tools. The tool you used to take off the bark is another tool that is nearly lost to time. We would call it a bark spud down here in the middle of North Carolina. Keep 'em coming. Love the anvils by the way!
Thank you for all your videos. Man, those grandkids i hope know how lucky they are to have a grandpa like you. Sure wish you were my neighbor. Much Love to you and your family!
Currently using a big old bottle jack welded upside down on 2 big pieces of angle iron posted in the ground as an anvil, I will get a good anvil one day and use this trick so thank you for this tip from future me
Great tip love your channel. I built an anvil stand that's a box to store it in while not in use. For my daughter who makes a living using an anvil every day.
Ask and you will receive ... I had just watched one of your anvil videos and requested a future video on mounting anvils because we have a neat old Mouse Hole Forge anvil to mount in our barn. Lo and behold the next video is this little gem. Many thanks Scott. Love your channel and content. God bless.
I just found your site. I have a 425 lb Fisher that's about to get repaired because of you. I also really dig that tie down. Not that my anvil wiggles much...I love seeing the little guy running about absorbing this. Nicely done!
Good heavens never thought I’d see another man like my late husband. I couldn’t bring myself to part with his black smithing tools. He loved guns and old steel and make knives out of files and spring steel. He made a small canon about 30 years ago and he’d fire it off at dawn every 4th of July. They never figured out who was doing it.
I know there are many different ways folks go about taking the ring out of an anvil. I personally have found that the addition of a healthy coating of a spray on multi purpose rubber on the bottom before mounting as well as up the sides of the anvil does the trick better than anything else I have tried. If one matches the rubber coating with the paint of the anvil almost nothing is lost in the esthetic appearance of the tool.
"this is my launching anvil" I think that's the test to know if you have enough anvils. :)
rjtumble haha good one
I love america.
Can we not gloss over the fact that bro launches an anvil over a hundred feet into the air, every Freedom Day?
If i catch it can i have it?
@@nicholaiivan491 I think that's only if you catch it Loony Tunes style.
Shooting anvils into the air!
God bless America.
After watching your videos I decided to clean my anvil up enough to read the maker and weight and was pleased to see the words "Hay Budden" 156 lbs. Thank you for all the wonderful videos. You've inspired me to make some big changes in my life. I hope one day to have the honor of shaking your hand. Again thank you sir.
I would of never guessed this guy would be crazy enough to launch an anvil.
I can see how that would be a spiritually uplifting hobby for a man to pursue, and how he might obtain great satisfaction from such an endeavor.
It's probably Cy. I blame Cy... just look at ruclips.net/video/DPfZhxMwrfA/видео.html ! He's a bad influence. Also: Poor anvil! Why not go to HF and get an Anvil Shaped Object instead? This is a usable anvil a lot of people would very happily work with.
Right I loved it just seeing that made me subscribe lol
SenselessUsername you are missing the point of launching an anvil the anvil takes none to barely any damage and what it signify is all that more Precious that anvil has a story a greater meaning to him due to those moments
LOL, my brother burnt his face (2nd degree) on the 4th of July while playing around with black powder. It was so funny, a white man turned into a red men in a split second, LOL! 🤠
Intelligence without arrogance, wonderful!!!!
I first read it as...."Intelligence without ignorance"
Ummm what??? Duh haha
I work with my hands on a daily basis and I love this channel. Great knowledge being spread here, entertaining, and honestly comforting. It's like going and talking to a good neighbor, reminds me of spending time with my dad as a kid with other mechanics, machinists, and other skilled men. Nothing like it.
Concave the bottom of the stump with a grinder; stops any wobble.
America needs a lot more dudes just like you! Well done sir...great channel! 👍
Scott, I come from a long line of carpenters and craftmen. I was about 3 when dad started taking me to his shop, and the first "project" I built hangs on my shop wall nearly 60 years later. You are the genuine article, and do the best channel on youtube, hands down. Your work and contributions are deeply appreciated.
When I get to a point in my life where I have a "launching anvil" I will know I've made it.
FourBitty right lol it’s hard enough to find an anvil to work on let alone launch one
With friend and family.
Yep
😂😂
You had me at "Launching anvil", subscribed..
I have been very, very fortunate to have been given a 204-pound anvil and will be mounting it onto either a log or a based made of laminated sections of logs if I can't find one large enough. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Picking up the hot punch simply accelerates one's punch assessment skills.
Thanks for the video - a trick my grandfather told me (2nd generation blacksmith & coachbuilder) is to place a sheet of cork between the anvil and block . This enhances the "ring" quality of the anvil and makes the sound when striking the anvil with your hammer so much sweeter ,
That's a great technique for leveling off the stump. Thanks.
i am an old retired auto body repairman,old school. in my day we repaired just about everything.however in the early 1980's they went to hss and hsla steel as i am sure you already know.you are extremly well versed in metal and it,s propterities.i really enjoy your channel.keep up the good work.

TV is dead.
Sorta seems like TV needs EC more than EC needs TV. If he sticks with it I think he could have a pretty strong channel all on his own.
Honestly television would probably ruin this channel. Producers and Lawyers would completely take over any creative control.
That is a horrible idea. To think that some out of touch, snot nose, Hollywood writer could add anything to the quality of this channel is ridiculous.
All these replies are pretty accurate and the reason, this old man stopped watching TV years ago. It has turned to liberal crap and are all about either huggie, feelie ,lets cry together or ass kicking 105 lb. women throwing 6'2" 225 lb. all muscles men, all over the room, like paper dolls.

I love hearing Cy holler! Makes me smile every time.
Who doesn't like watching a hundred pound anvil launched straight up?

Just mounted my anvil using your method. Thanks.
That outro of you walking out of your shop is the kind of life I dream of having. Beautiful. One day!
This video just gave me a great solution for the mounting of a small anvil that I have been
pondering over for a very long time. Thank you.

Just set up my anvil using this method. Easy and all from scrap around the shop.
I want a launching anvil, this show and the Montana Englishman metal working channels are awesome. Thanks for doing this.
simplicity , my kinda deal ,... i may use this set up thx friend
I have been following you buckin in your blacksmithing setup and watched tour anvil mount vid. I just copied the link to this vid and was going to send it to you!! Then saw your reply!! Haha
Yep, the channel is awesome. Many thanks for all the posts. I know my son & I have reaped the benefits of it together many times.
Man I love this guy he speaks so well. I work in construction so this guy tickles my fancy. I have never even considered blacksmithing but now I'm Intrigued. Keep up the great work and great material.
need to mount my new anvil and this idea with hooks and chains looks very useful and elegant. Thanks!
I feel like this channel is basically what I would've learned from my Grandpa if I grew up around him.
I bought a little 25 lbs anvil because of this channel. I didn't need anything big because I am not a blacksmith, but it has come in handy doe some things!

A small Vulcan that always set by the tack room for a quick horseshoe adjustment
And a well-made railroad iron anvil

EFD620G it'll be a few more years for me to carry my grand child around in the shop, what a treat it'll be
That seems about the simplest and quickest way to get that mounted down tight. I like it.
Many thanks for a very instructional video on how to mount up an anvil on a stump. I am getting ready to do this very thing in a couple days with my own anvil and it sure does help to see how to level the stump. Many thanks!
Love the video, great advice and talk through. I may be 5 years late, but still relevant to me. So thanks again for the video
Just got a anvil and a large section of a oak tree .I have been contemplating just how to saw and mount it the simplest way . Your aprouch seems to be exactly what I was looking for Thank You for sharing your knowledge.
Essential Craftsman and if you don't want to use eye bolts, weld the chain ends to an ordinary bolt head or piece of allthread
Thanks again for the good advice everyone and my shins Thank You also in advance.
Thank you. I have a large oak stump waiting to get squared up for my #110 Trenton. Your video was a great help. I plan on routing a one half to one inch deep recessed pocket for the base. Love the chain tension hold down.
It makes me happy to see you turn your ratchet 360 degrees. It's handy to have a ratchet for tight spaces, but I always see people cranking on them when spinning is so much faster.
I like seeing how you work, how you solve problems, how productivity is accomplished. Thank you!
Had my subscription at "this is our launching anvil." XD Excellent Info for me as a starter, thank you!
I really like your channel, always interesting and enjoyable. I love your old tools. The tool you used to take off the bark is another tool that is nearly lost to time. We would call it a bark spud down here in the middle of North Carolina. Keep 'em coming. Love the anvils by the way!
The only video out of a couple dozen that should me on how to figure anvil height. Thanks
Thank you for all your videos. Man, those grandkids i hope know how lucky they are to have a grandpa like you. Sure wish you were my neighbor. Much Love to you and your family!
first video I've seen on this channel.... totally loved it!!!
I love this channel. It’s like watching a slice of home.
Currently using a big old bottle jack welded upside down on 2 big pieces of angle iron posted in the ground as an anvil, I will get a good anvil one day and use this trick so thank you for this tip from future me
Your knowledge is always appreciated!
Great tip love your channel.
I built an anvil stand that's a box to store it in while not in use.
For my daughter who makes a living using an anvil every day.
Your right, the anvil launch is the best. Have fun, Take care
Dropping the torch into the pritchel ... all star maneuver. Thumbs up and thanks for the time you spend on these videos.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge your awesome professor never to old to learn yes I'm old not
I used this mounting technique and I am very pleased with it.
I just started blacksmithing today! This was 100% what I needed, I will build it tomorrow. Thank you so much.
Ask and you will receive ... I had just watched one of your anvil videos and requested a future video on mounting anvils because we have a neat old Mouse Hole Forge anvil to mount in our barn. Lo and behold the next video is this little gem. Many thanks Scott. Love your channel and content. God bless.
How to 'square' off a stump! That's awesome!
Serendipity. I laid my hands on a couple of stumps just the other day. I love the eye bolt set-up! Thanks for sharing and all the great videos.
I just found your site. I have a 425 lb Fisher that's about to get repaired because of you. I also really dig that tie down. Not that my anvil wiggles much...I love seeing the little guy running about absorbing this. Nicely done!
you have a first rate helper. im sure he provides a lot of entertainment!!
now this is Another Great Video... thank you for taking the time to make this...
Good heavens never thought I’d see another man like my late husband. I couldn’t bring myself to part with his black smithing tools. He loved guns and old steel and make knives out of files and spring steel. He made a small canon about 30 years ago and he’d fire it off at dawn every 4th of July. They never figured out who was doing it.
Yet another amazing way of doing something. Thanks for sharing so much of your wisdom and experience, we younger guys appreciate it
The way you fastened that anvil to the stump was ingenious
You sure love what you do, and you do it right.
We need to see the launching of the anvil! We need MORE ANVIL! Great video!
I wanna be like you when I’m older , love your channel keep the videos coming
love your work , god bless men who fix things , share things and make things :)
Your channel is a great find! Glad we met!
I'm doing one right now, thanks for the video
Ur a good bloke with a big heart
So good, thankyou tradie. Your the top man. I can learn from you.
First time I’ve been here. This guy seems like a good man and he has terrific skills
What a good bunch of folks!
We are setting up a blacksmith shop at our Boy Scout camp. I wish we had a guy like you around.
you just showed me a neat trick on where I can put my torch when using my anvil, tks ,can't believe I didn't see it myself !!!
Very nice instructional video...Thanks!
He's always so happy in anvil videos lol.
You are a really good person. Thanks for that.

Man! That log squaring trick. Thanks!
Thanks for this great video
Loved the launching anvil sequence
cherish this craftsman 🙏🍻
Simple yet very very effective. I dig it.
