@pixelpatter01 7 лет назад

ACME anvils?

@davidmeyer6908 7 лет назад

+pixelpatter01 The funny thing about that is that ACME anvils were a real thing. According to "Anvils in America" by Richard Postman, ACME existed as a trademark of anvils made by the Columbus Forge and Iron Company and sold by Sears and Roebuck in the early 20th century. This is the same company that made the solid Trenton model, so it is likely that Wile E Coyote was at least using a reasonably decent anvil for his many traps.

@IronheadOfScroteus 7 лет назад

He used good materials and tools, just not much of an engineer.

@lerch25 7 лет назад

I'm a little scared of ACME anvils, I've seen so many times that coyote used them with disastrous results!

@scotterdmann8744 7 лет назад

tony butcher I contacted him, There not for sale he said he's trying to kill a road runner or something with them?

@disposablecowboy 7 лет назад

First go to a part of the forest where anvils are commonly spotted on trail cams. Then set out some bait. Some 1000° knives should do as there natural forging instincts will draw them in. Then when they are close enough hit them on the head with a short handle sledge. This will temporarily stun and confuse the anvil. And there you go you now have an anvil.

@madscientistshusta 7 лет назад

Frequently Asked Questions ok that was funny

@myguitartwerks7825 7 лет назад

Frequently Asked Questions I did this once... It was a tough anvil. I had to stun it a few more times though. WARNING: the anvil will break your sledge every hit (make sure you bring extra sledge hammers). Also, get ready for broken limbs. THEY WILL ATTACK.

@anon746912 7 лет назад

Get a piece of railway - the steel is similar enough to perform basic anvil tasks.

@Shazzkid 7 лет назад

anon746912 Not at all, railway steel is actually rather more like mild steel rather than hardened steel as an anvil would, railway steel isn't close to as hard as you need for an anvil, not to mention it terrible rebound and would require a fair amount of work just to get it up to a reasonable size and weight with a flat face. The whole railway thing is an old myth they really make terrible anvils

@shaunspwnage 7 лет назад

Shazzkid they are pretty bad compared to a true anvil but one small piece of railway track got me into blacksmithing. If there's a will there's a way right?

@LazyLifeIFreak 7 лет назад

More important to get into the trade, starting small.

@gewgulkansuhckitt9086 7 лет назад

I think maybe you can weld a piece of hardened steel on top of the rail.

@raymondraptorclaw2901 4 года назад

I have a bit of a dream of mining a landfill or a junkyard on a salvaging trip. Imagine just digging through some brush, and behold: a huge, thousand pound German anvil just sitting half buried in the ground like a glorious ancient treasure... ✨

@wilfordhollimanii4031 Год назад

Dude, your son is really lucky to have you around. I’ve watched many of your videos. Keep it up!

@johnmcclain3887 2 года назад

That is indeed a fine anvil!! I've got a small shop in a farming community, and anvil was offered about ten years ago, brought in, 150 for a 1917 Fisher, with a similar laminated hard face. It is chipped on the off edge, but as you say, and it's relatively flat, not worn out, and sound. I'm very pleased with it, as you say, made when men knew how to work and weren't afraid to. I think an age like that is coming on. I was considering welding up mine, but am convinced it's just fine, haven't even cleaned it, just mounted it and put it to use. Thanks for sharing this, enjoyed watching you fettle it up, and make er pretty. Semper Fidelis.

@stephenater9687 7 лет назад

I can't resist commenting. My paternal g'father was an actual working blacksmith and until he couldn't do it anymore, I would follow him like a puppy dog and watch him work. He had me stand out of the way. He kept it up until I was about eight years old and I was too immature and young to have him teach me. I did learn some from watching. Not enough..I do remember him picking up two plowshares with one hand though. He was about 6'7" according to the funeral parlor. RIP Pop

@pauldrowns7270 7 лет назад

Thank you for the very practical advice! I use a similar technique to find old tools for my own use, or repurposing. I simply start looking for them, even to the point of asking total strangers. When I started restoring and sharpening old handsaws, I found a need for a set. Once I started looking for saw sets, they popped up like dandelions in spring. Ya gotta want it!

@SeattlePioneer 6 месяцев назад

I decided that a mattock would be very useful for digging up blackberry thickets. Within a couple of weeks I found a very good mattock/pick with a five pound head that was being discarded by someone. I picked that up out of a junk pile for free. For 5,000 years of human history, people have been STRUGGLING to acquire the "stuff of life." Now the struggle is GETTING RID OF IT!

I wish i had included that in my comments on the first video. I think what sold me from the get go is that you approach this as though we are not stupid but yet we don't know. The details you provide as if two friends chatting on the back of your truck are priceless. I find it awesome that you are so generous with your learned knowledge, common sense and tips. Thanks.

@Kevinegan1 7 лет назад

I think it's about time you had that talk with your son that you have probably been dreading. He's at that age where his father needs to take him aside and explain one of the more unpleasant facts of life. It's time you tell him that he has a thing called "Plumbers Crack". It isn't bad now but it will get worse as he gets older "and fatter". Though he has "Plumber's Crack" it isn't the "end" of the world. Explain to him gently that if he is really careful, buys the right trousers along with a very strong leather belt, and is always mindful that he has "Plumber's Crack" especially when bending over or on his hands and knees lost in his work, then he can avoid those embarrassing moments when, friends, family, customers, and the ladies look away behind his back with that disgusted look on their faces like they just walked up on a dead dog and smelled it all at the same time. He has probably noticed that a few people who he was working with suddenly had a completely unexplained change in their demeanor that he cannot understand. He has thought about talking to you about it "butt" was too embarr-assed. One minute everything is friendly and the next it is like he has cooties or something. Take the lead, be a father and break it to him gently and most importantly, let him know that "Plumbers Crack" doesn't have to ruin his life.

@rosone51178 7 лет назад

I too have seen the ugly side. It was my old boss, a great guy, but every time the work was within 3 feet of the ground I was overtaken with a nervous feeling. I knew what was coming next. I insisted "let me get down there and do that!" It had no effect as he was a big show off. It was around this time I noticed, he had again forgotten his belt on this day. The image still haunts me, and the questions still remain, "how can a man's ass be so white, yet so hairy?" I have since learned to cope with this pain but it is contagious, that is why I always have a spare belt in my toolbox.

I stumbled across this video by accident and was a bit skeptical at first but now I'm hooked and have watched all of your other videos. Looking forward to the next one.

The caution sticker on the back of the truck made my day.

Seems to me just a foot to two of common railroad track would do just about most stuff a generic garage mechanic might want an anvil for.

@roadrunner_meepmeep 7 лет назад

I don't even use that... I use one of those railroad foot plates that you can just pick up anywhere by the side of the tracks... I have 4 or 5 of them dating back to 1901 that I use for all sorts of purposes. Straigtening out metal, as a plate for a kickstand of a motorbike on soft ground, and other things.

I didn't know Anvils could cost that much. I learned something new today.

Nice- I found a 225 Haybudden in a barn. I had placed an add for "anvil wanted" in Craigslist

$ 14K for any anvil is stupid . I got all of mine for under $100

Collectors. There's no accounting for them. Back when pedal tractors were hot, I watched a real, running Farmall M tractor sell for $1000. A little bit before that, a pedal tractor M had sold for $1500! At an auction last year, there were empty John Deere 55gallon drums from the 60's. They sold for $2000! More dollars than sense. How many people paid thousands of dollars for beanie babies that are now worth nothing? That anvil will never forge again, until it gets sold away from the collector....

I've been fortunate to own an anvil for the last 34 or so years. My oldest son, Brian, is a machinist and spent a ton of time in that shop in high school. When he graduated, the school was closing. His Shop Teacher knew that I was a shop nut, woodworking, welding, fiberglass work/etc. He asked Brian..."would your Dad be interested in a free anvil?" Answer was a quick...YES. The teacher said that everything would be going into or had gone into the dumpster. He'd rather see me have it that the custodian or a dumpster diver. There were 10's of thousands (over 100, 000) cloth back disc sanders that I have been using for a long time. Brian was able to rescue 3,000 of them from the dumpster for me. The rest were unusable as oil had been dumped all over them. I couldn't believe the waste. I'm still using some of those same discs and still have the installer tool for that. Those 100,000 pieces had been donated by somebody (manufactured in Canada) and most were just dumped. Hard to believe the waste.

Yep, that's definitely Oregon. Look at that green moss sidewalk. Nice find on the anvil.

14 large for an anvil...did jesus cast it or something?, nice find on your little baby by the way

@jcast25 5 лет назад

14 grand. 14 large would be $1400

@samcarroll7451 4 года назад

The iron table you are working on cleaning the anvi is amazing.

@TheMetalButcher 7 лет назад

Thank you for not being one of those people who is too afraid to use a wire wheel on stuff. I see a lot of people who get offended if you were to use a wire wheel on something like this, as if this massive hunk of hard steel and iron is going to get ruined by the softest of steels in the form of small wires.

Old rich folks running around paying $400 for these anvils. Run up the price and are the reason my young folks can't find one when they want to get into the hobby. I've been looking for 2 years Every time I find one the owner is some 80 year old woman who thinks she has a nugget of gold. One lady wanted $300 for a 100 pound anvil that had been broken in half.

@fordrac1ng81 7 лет назад

When I lived in oregon I used to see these on craigslist for 300-400 all the time. Never knew they were worth that much.

Sir, your enthusiasm for the subject is inspirational. I happened upon your video by chance. The "finding" techniques you described can be used on any item. I am particularly fond of hunting out old six volt VW beetles.

@tedb.5707 Год назад

I had one of those in college 45 years ago. Hard to kill, though prone to catastrophic rust eventually.

I finally found an anvil! It's been laying around in an old ladys backyard, all rusted up for the better part of 50 years. I cant wait until i get to fix it up and find out what manufacturer it is! Thank you for the great videos! Greetings from Sweden

@theClosetgrower420 7 лет назад

That looks almost exactly like the anvil I inherited and have in my shop now, I haven't done a whole lot with it yet but I am a bit of a welder/fabricator and have real interest in starting to get into forging and blacksmithing. I could never really make out the lettering on the side of it but the profile and details you mentioned look exactly like mine. Great video, thanks.
