You got guts. Making an anvil is a massive undertaking, and you didn't quit. You are a rockstar in my book. Just a stick welder and an angle grinder and you made a work of art.
How do you hate somebody with that much determination? You must have at least 10 - 15 hours into just cutting the steel and a 50 pound box of welding rods. Good solid anvil, I hope it brings you fortune and holds up to many hammers.
Outstanding work and determination. So glad people like you filmed this to show others how haed this really is. My next anvil im going to make is a cast anvil.
Yep. Trial and error can be a wonderful experience building tool. I will admit that, in the beginning, i wasnt sure how he'd pull this off using scrapyard iron, a welder, and a grinder/cutter, but i cant even begin to argue with the results
This guy went through an insane amount of work to reach the finished project, I would hate to be the guy that pissed him off... Talk about determination
I can only imagine somebody talked shit about him not having an anvil, then he made this. Everybody start telling him he's a bad smith without a drill press or a bandsaw so everybody can learn how to build one.
Piss this man off and you will wake up in an elaborate entirely steel maze welded together, saw movie style. Yeah ill pass, i hit the like button, dont trap me.
@@hugoquaresma467 so, does welding make you an emotional mess or do you have to be one first then decide to be a welder? 😂🤣 Weird, everyone I know who welds doesn't cry when someone holds a grinder wrong. They usually are the first to show them how to do it properly and motivate them to keep at it. Shitgibbon
Not many people can say they made an anvil piece by piece, let alone with no fancy tools just angle grinders and an arc welder. And a drill... yeah that was madness... Hats off!! Well done
I can’t imagine how many hours you had in that! Or how many grinding wheels you used! Turned out awesome! Will last you the rest of your life and who ever you pass it down to! Great job
@@prime0591 please instead of talking shit maybe explain why and help the guy get better or you know do one urself and show us how to do it better if u cant do either dont talk shit
And some people think humans didn't make the Pyramids in Egypt. Once a man sets his mind to doing something, he does it! You are amazing. Takes a lot of dedication to push through and do a build like this.
I have a couple of pretty ancient 12" AEG grinders in the shop - At my time of life, I don't use them for very long in the day ...they are heavy .... but great when you need a deep cut :
The cracking problem was probably due to the weld cooling too fast. A way to prevent this is to preheat the area with a torch and then heating after the weld and slowly letting it cool. burying it in dry sand or ash after welding can help insulate it to slow the cooling process and relieve stress.
Different alloys cool and shrink at different rates so rapid cooling can cause cracking at their seams. That is why it is generally best to cool things gradually so the parts can normalize to the stresses they are under. Exceptions to this are hardening and differential tempering of steel for tools, parts, and such.
I cannot even imagine how hard used blacksmithing to be before power tools (and even with power tools, it isn’t a walk in the park!). Anyway, fantastic video 👌👌
You did a very good job and you are a very good welder if you would be working on and welding on objects as big as your anvil or close to it. It would be good if you had an oven that would heat the work piece up to 400 degrees F before and after welding before to solve your heat sink problem after to stress relieve your welds and cuts
Awesome work!! I love your step by step explanations, including how to repair what went wrong. And a link to a better method for the multiple welds ends being extended for a full grind off end! Very well done with minimal equipment, which is how we start!! Thank you sir for an excellent video!
My Father taught me when you do not have what you want, you use what you have! That has served me well for many years and this Man is doing just that. I was not of he mind to comment on this Excellent video after reading all of the NEGATIVE comments until I found yours. Your comment about minimal equipment allowed me to speak (so to speak LOL). We all have to crawl before we can Walk! This man is taking big steps! Cheers from John, Australia.
Hard work, inventive solutions ... Nice job! The cracks in the center of the weld (shown at 13:26 )appeared because you didn't pre-heated the thick metals when welded. As general advise, any steel at least 20 mm thick must pre-heat. Also, if is high quality steel (high C and other alloy elements), along pre-heat you could use Ni based electrodes (more expensive!) for first two layers, than continue with basics electrodes. Warning: The welds you done aren't fully penetrated, those welds will crack eventually. However, it will last a while. There is a small risks for accident if the breakdown will fragile type but normally it should be a plastic one, allowing the user will to notice the coming failure.
I've watched this a few times now. It's not a "how to" tutorial, but it is an awesome view of how a guy uses the tools and materials he has to make what he needs.
You should have titled this "How To Make A Work Of Art From Nothing". I forbid you to EVER sell this Anvil. It MUST be passed down within your family and they must never sell it either. It is a family heirloom. Subscribed!!!
Can’t remember the last time I saw someone with as much sheer determination as this guy to make something. Big lumps of steel and a disc grinder, and he produces an anvil. Maybe not the prettiest anvil in town, but wow! , the work put in to make it. Great job, well done!
From the subject in the title I was expecting some casting. But I was wrong. The project came out really nice. I would like to know just out of curiosity how many hours of work went into the build. I bet he could find the missing 4Kg on the floor as grinding dust. Always good when someone can make there own useful tools. Keep it up.
I use to help the welder at a gold mine that I worked at weld in 3/4" wear plate into the beds of the haul trucks. I used 1/4" rod, a lot of them. He was using the wire-feed on the sides. We only had one big wire-feed, so I used the other big welder for stick, while the welder did the sides with the wire-feed. Being in that one position for hours would just kill my back.
I was just amazed that you took the time to create such a wonderful anvil. I would like to suggest a bigger tree stump underneath it to elevate the anvil as an aid to your back! Less bending over. The other thing is about the weld cracks. Your solution was fine but labor intensive. If you drill a series of holes in the bad weld channel and plug weld every other hole the thermal stress will be lessened. Then come back and weld the remaining holes. The other thing is heating the entire thing up to 350 or 400 degrees f. Then proceed with the welding as normal. This preheat will also help with tempering or heat treating the anvil. Very nice work. You should have signed it!
Old school work. Very very nice. Here's a man who knows that with a bit of effort you can make something that will last as long as this planet. Well done.
in the case an arc wielder and something producing electricity both survive. and him too. 3 points of failure man. better find an anvil if it's the apocalypse. and hope this guy is here to make another objects with it (and then there is only one point of failure). survival is made of measuring chances.
EMP is overrated. The Air Force built an EMP test rig to ensure aircraft are hardened against EMP and of course both sides had atmospheric nuke tests. The pulse trashing some of the grid doesn't mean it would kill simple vehicle electrical systems, generators, or spare parts on the shelf. Many welders use classic magneto ignition Lincoln SA series engine drive power sources. They'll still work. So will simple car and truck systems with early electronic ignitions or points. All my Harleys will run and those take Chevy inline six points and condensers. Light, simple hydro-electric systems of the sort used to power mills (and make carbide for acetylene!) will still work to provide local power even if the distribution system shits the bed. Check these folks out. They rehab small hydro plants over 100 years old. www.frenchriverland.com/
pretty amazing you did all that with a handheld grinder a hand drill and a welder. Im used to seeing youtubers jump on milling machines and lathes for every little thing
LOL well then......you tell that to the 45 machinists that work for me with over 1,000 years combined experience. These guys sharpen drill bits everyday and we work in very tight tolerances. These men sharpen all our drill bits by hand with bench grinder, properly dressed wheels and a dial caliper....so you are full of shit and a pussy.....I got guys here that can hand sharpen drill dead nuts by eye +- .005 perside....so yeah.....LOL

I have anvils made out of railroad track, that I found and purchased. it was very useful and someone did alot of work to make it as an anvil. Your anvil is very functional and it appears to work very well. I now appreciate that homemade anvil even more Great work,
you'd be surprised I did almost the same thing with a set of forklift forks that were 4" wide and 2" thick. 10 separate cuts and I might have used only 12 or 14 discs hehe and they were harbor freight cutting discs
That's awesome man. I was about to give up on cutting my railroad anvil because its taking so long but this clearly took you way longer so I guess I can hold out haha awesome work man
People still impress me even in this day and age. You've certainly have some talent young man thats a fact! You made not just a work of art from scrap but created a creating device. I could tell you some pointers on the ending of cracking of welds on dissimiliar metals as you did encounter. But the fact is you do not need any advice! Seems you're doing quite well on your own. You created a great video as well as id mentioned a work of working art! Two thumbs up! Great job. Id be the 1st in line on assiting you in resolving haters issues on anything you've done in the entire video! The more or less of weight commit and all lol. That horn on the anvil can be a haters worst nightmare! Keep up the work cause in you're case, you are only going to improve! Great job in every aspect!

To help prevent the anvil from sucking the heat away from the welded area, you can do a preheating of the steel
And some people think humans didn't make the Pyramids in Egypt. Once a man sets his mind to doing something, he does it! You are amazing. Takes a lot of dedication to push through and do a build like this.
Dude... You should win an award just for the sheer amount of grinding alone. Great Job bro.... Determination and resilience..
I avoid using a 9" grinder whenever possible, you have left me speechless.
Angle grinder is the most dangrous tool in blacksmith works
Pussy’s
I have a couple of pretty ancient 12" AEG grinders in the shop - At my time of life, I don't use them for very long in the day ...they are heavy .... but great when you need a deep cut :
One of the nicest anvils totally from scratch.
not totally
Watching you doing the hardy hole was a lesson in perseverance.
A bench drill would have come in real handy just about there.
kudos for the drill not burning out
That hole in the cutting surface with the Grinder was a beast too
The entire project was perseverance personified.
This video was the final straw for convincing myself on getting a cutting torch this man perseverance is beyond words
The cracking problem was probably due to the weld cooling too fast. A way to prevent this is to preheat the area with a torch and then heating after the weld and slowly letting it cool. burying it in dry sand or ash after welding can help insulate it to slow the cooling process and relieve stress.
Make sure your welding surfaces are CLEAN and pristine too ... any dirt, oil, pitting, scale, etc can reduce the quality of the welds.
Well he did say that was what caused the crack in the video
I thought he said that the cause of the cracking was different alloys, not too fast cooling
Different alloys cool and shrink at different rates so rapid cooling can cause cracking at their seams. That is why it is generally best to cool things gradually so the parts can normalize to the stresses they are under. Exceptions to this are hardening and differential tempering of steel for tools, parts, and such.
its also helps to pre-heat thick material before heating as well.

It's a Piece of Art Work Itself.. Pre Heating the two different metals before welding I believe will help with cracking..

Anyone who has made anything by welding it together know the work this guy put in to this masterpiece. I take my hat off to you Sir it came out great !
It's great to see you back mate, and as usual, you've made another beautiful piece. I appreciate the work, time, and effort you put into every video you post.
Great job man, looks great! Now, if you could make me one of those, that'd be greeaaaat. And I'ma need that at the price of... on the house.

you'll hurt your back and knees if you continue working like this. Rise the anvil up & stay safe :)
nice project
I wasn't sure where this was going at first, but I'm impressed with your patience and determination. Very nice accomplishment and a good size anvil to work with! 🤘😎👍👍
I just want to comment one thing to this man..
No matters what result's look like, He's harder than those steel.
Salute 🙏
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The anvil was there already in the steel. You only had to free them.
Cheerio from Germany.
Whats 4kg between an Anvil and his Hammer, awesome skills with Grinder, welder and to finish off a hammer on the finished piece. thanks for sharing.
BRILLIANT! what an achievement-Your electricity bill must be high though
I have anvils made out of railroad track, that I found and purchased. it was very useful and someone did alot of work to make it as an anvil. Your anvil is very functional and it appears to work very well. I now appreciate that homemade anvil even more Great work,
Holy hell man, the amount of work that must have gone into this is extraordinary - and the result is fabulous. Surprising even! Well done! Bravo!
Great work, but for all the cutting discs you must have burned through, you could have afforded a decent oxy-acetelene cutting rig.
For steel that thick? I think a metal cutting bandsaw would probably be more appropriate.
@@Mistraker I believe he is referring to cost effectiveness. Bandsaw would be the greatest, just more expensive than the oxy torch or discs
you'd be surprised I did almost the same thing with a set of forklift forks that were 4" wide and 2" thick. 10 separate cuts and I might have used only 12 or 14 discs hehe and they were harbor freight cutting discs
Ryan Taylor my thoughts exactly
Or just bought an anvil.....
Wonder how many grinder disks he went through to make this anvil???
I think 2 to 3 per cut
Awesome video man, I admire your tenacity
draggngmac386 I agree. Couldn't we all learn for this hopeful young man. Wow !
100% Patience, determination, fearlessness, and hard graft. Brilliant.
I commend you on undertaking such a big project, and a very rewarding one. Excellent job.
I loved his honesty and politeness his honesty just adorable
Awesome build man. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you make that. I don’t know how anyone could give you a thumbs down 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
wow, so nice when a so hard work turn out so well. Congrats mate.
Such work requires much more courage than skill, when you finish you become not only courageous but also skillful
That was a hell of a project! I hope you’re still getting use out of it.
That's awesome man. I was about to give up on cutting my railroad anvil because its taking so long but this clearly took you way longer so I guess I can hold out haha awesome work man
@@SHGVM I did. I went through about 20 grinding discs but I got it done haha
People still impress me even in this day and age. You've certainly have some talent young man thats a fact! You made not just a work of art from scrap but created a creating device. I could tell you some pointers on the ending of cracking of welds on dissimiliar metals as you did encounter. But the fact is you do not need any advice! Seems you're doing quite well on your own. You created a great video as well as id mentioned a work of working art! Two thumbs up! Great job. Id be the 1st in line on assiting you in resolving haters issues on anything you've done in the entire video! The more or less of weight commit and all lol. That horn on the anvil can be a haters worst nightmare! Keep up the work cause in you're case, you are only going to improve! Great job in every aspect!
Well said Cantell -- Epic effort.
Determination - that's how Russia beat the Germans.
Well lets be honest the weather defeated Germany. Nothing against the Russian people. Their government is shit though.
It was the Russian winter
@W Winterheart if i remember correctly the counter attack from operation barbarossa was entirely soviet union vs german
Well, he's croatian
@@NKG416 the u.s.a. provided something like 450-500 thousand trucks (which is a big deal for logistics and troop movement, and every large shipment preceded every large breakout after stalingrad) but you're basically right, the defining factor in the victory in europe was the u.s.s.r.'s willingness to use millions upon millions of troops as cannon fodder. the red army beat the third reich, hands down.
Congratulations, very good job, as said before pre heat, post heat..... it's a learning curve and you are on the right track. God bless
I would say it's definitely " road runner" approved ! Coyote said he'll try the anvil at the nearest cannon ! Lol. Very nice job 👍
