Flattening an Anvil Face with the Angle Grinder! 

Sometimes simplicity is best. Brilliant idea. on it tomorrow

Cant wait to see you using it :) keep up the good work

Good to see you back on the steel brother.

Yep, this is happening right now! Thanks for the simple idea!!

Why didnt I think of that! Haha well done man. Gonna give that a whirl tomorrow. Thanks for the video !

Great vid man!

I like the series its getting to be a pretty badass anvil man!

Muy creativa la forma de aplanar la superficie de ese yunque! Yo estuve haciendo prácticamente las mismas cosas que tu para rectificar la superficie de un bloque de hierro que me regalaron hace más de veinte años. Te felicito por la idea de la plantilla, creo que hubiera funcionado mejor si hubieras usado una piedra rígida en la amoladora angular. De todos modos te quedó muy bien!

thanks for this...i wanted to make a piece of steel...flat...tried workin it by hand but was discouraged...so checked utube...i think i am gonna try toto use a grinder disc instead of a flap disc...but it is fun to see peeps tryin to save money that otherwise we could not afford...to pay a machine shop.

that is a working anvil awesome job man

Doesn't it destroy the hard surface?

Thanx for the video

I am about to try something similar with stone and a cupped diamond blade. Instead of a wooden 'stool' I am using a 6ft wide steel rolling shop table.

HOLA AMIGO.... PRIMERO, GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR... VI TODA LA SERIE DE TUS VÍDEOS PARA HACER ESTE YUNQUE, MUCHAS DE TUS IDEAS FACILITARAN LA FABRICACIÓN DEL MIO, ES BUENO SABER QUE EXISTE GENTE COMO TU QUE GENERA EN OTROS BUENAS IDEAS... UN ABRAZO DESDE SANTIAGO DE CHILE... BENDICIONES

Is there anything more aggressive then flap disk ? I need to shave off 1/4

What happend to doing the small piece of track that disappeared and never seen again

Nice

Для чего вы используете настолько точную поверхность? What do you use such a fine surface for? ...translator Google

Educational, gave me some ideas but the grinder / plywood solution has it's own problems: the disc uses up and the floor has to be leveled and smooth (not every workshop has those conditions). Still not bad. Keep it up

That must be loud when striking it. Put some sand in the middle and weld some end caps on it.

You probably want to chanfur the edge because if your forging on the edge of the anvil it will leave nasty marks

Now mount it upside down with that thick working surface that is currently the base, on top

I see you wore your good shoes for the video

It's a nice idea, but scraping something flat is ment to be a delicate procedure. Showing the high spots with your file and then hitting them with the angle grinder is simply going to remove too much material. Angle grinder is just to agressive. I did like your jig, that's probably the best way to do it, short of a LOT of filing or a milling machine. Thanks for sharing the video 👍. Stay safe and God bless

Hey, it's not you, it's me, but MAJOR pet peeve.... Flat and level are not synonymous. An angle bracket on a steel bridge can be flat, but it is most definitely not level. Level is completely perpendicular to the direction of gravity, in the place were you are. You cant check level with a ruler/ straight edge. Spirit bubble levels are not even scientifically accurate, but they are way closer than the human eye. The occasional human can detect out of level by as little as 1 degree, after years of working with it, but that's another story. Sorry for the rant, but left unchecked these mis-uses tend to spread. The anvil is looking great.

Nice simple great start I think you could do better

They really can't do asian squads

To be honest, it's far from flat, but without the decent material, it will be hard to so so

Don't you appreciate your life? Wear a mask when doing so much grinding good grief
