I really enjoy seeing everyone's shop pictures so here a few for anyone who shares my interest. I got this HEAVY duty metal table, anvil, and 2 vises for free. I gave my grandparent's good friend a knife and he insisted I take this stuff with me. The table is made from the tail gate of some kind of old utility truck welded onto some support system. It had the vise and pipe vise already attached. I research the anvil and I've narrowed it down to a Mousehole Forge anvil.

So, a 97 lb. Mousehole? Cool. Great score on all that stuff. New KMG and VFD? Great, congratulations. Is that anvil top really cranked toward the horn like that?

Yeah man. The anvil is slanted like that for whatever reason? On a google image search a few of them have that slant. The top is perfectly flat when it comes to denting and dips it just has that slant. Maybe it has a purpose? I'm about to build a forge and I don't think it should cause much of a problem, we'll see though.
