I have a smaller 77 pound anvil, so I got a big stump and I mounted mine on that, so far it is not drying out too much, but then again, I cut the tree down, and harvested the stump when the tree was still alive, I would prefer a metal stand though.
Mr Tony, thanks for a simple explanation to what seems to be hard for most people. Can you give us the approximate angle that you cut those legs? I’ve got a couple old London patterns that need stands and your style is what I’m planning. Thanks again
The angle was probably around 15 degrees or so. I just winged it but that should be in the ballpark. Three legs are better than 4 for leveling however. Thanks for watching!
