@@ChrisGregory-Farrier-Author Glad this short showed up in my feed. Those were some super cool skills. I've always found anvils very interesting. Do you know what's with the stump & chain thing ? It seems like some anvils have chains wrapped around the base. Anyway, stay legendary !! Can't wait to watch more of your contest.
