• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

I bought a NC Tool big face anvil at an estate sale this w.e. It is in new condition, bought new and never used. It's only 70 lbs, but i figure I can add a big chunk of scrap under the base and get it near 150 lbs total and use it till I find something better. Only cost $100. I know it will be better than the RR track I have now.

Thanks guys. The picture is from NC tool web site. I emailed them cause mine does not have the turning cams on the side, thought it might be a knockoff. They replied that it's at least 5yrs old model.
Still working on the shop remodel, so it will be awhile before I can try it out.
 
Those are pretty popular with farriers. I've seen them hold up to quite a bit of cold shaping horseshoes, so the face ought to stay nice and flat for you.
 
nice anvil, I've always liked the looks of those.

Do you feel bad about stealing it?? :D
 
Good deal...Let us know how it works for you. They are made in NC from what NC Tool has told me
 
Nice find! That will make a nice protable demo anvil too if you don't permanantly attach that base..... Way to go!
