1940s Fisher Anvil Restoration - Making an Anvil Stand.
I restored "1940s Fisher-Norris anvil and making an anvil stand in the video. "Made in U.S.A." Fisher-Norris was the first large scale manufacturer of anvils in the U.S, found in 1843. They used a patent process that welded a tool steel plate onto a cast iron body in the mold when the anvil was cast. Up until this time all good anvils were forged from wrought iron and faced with tool steel that was forge welded to the body.The Fisher process produced an economical and very servicable anvil. They are also much quieter than wrought or all steel anvils which ring like a bell. Fisher-Norris anvils are often called “City Men’s anvil” because they don’t ring. This 100 lbs example was probably made in WW2 era, it doesn’t have the Eagle logo, Fisher stampings or the weight numbers on it. To fasten the production rate, it is possible that they have removed those markings. Don't forget subscribe to my channel and like these videos please. Thank you for watching.

First time I've seen anyone put a whole anvil in rust remover. Certainly some SICK work goin on here.

This is a very cool restoration and build. I, too, work with wood and steel, so this really hits home. The square headed bolts were a nice touch.

I'm glad that there are still people like that who care about precision and beauty, I thought we were disappearing, I have no words to express my admiration, BRAVO keep up the good work, we are not disappearing, respect from old BG.

Please read to the end or you may misunderstand me.

As a Blacksmith, I kept thinking that “ you are making it too pretty to use. Who would ever want to ding that anvil up by actually using it as it was intended. It seemed like a waste of good steel.”

But…….as a Craftsman, this project makes my heart swell with appreciation for the skill and effort put into it.
It is very pretty and I will just accept it as an object of beauty rather than a tool of industry.

Well done, Sir, well done.

That's the most precision anvil base in the history of anvil bases. Looks like a museum piece.

[lamontcranston]

Germany, only you could produce a man who would use Helicoils on an anvil stump. I applaud you.
All jokes aside this was amazing. Very well done.

The best anvil restoration I've ever seen

[stanleycarlock]

Looks very nice but bands need to be one continuous piece.

Now that’s what I call restoration. I cannot stand to watch these videos where they just use a grinder on the top. You did it the right way. Congratulations. It is wonderful to see someone do it, right

[slackjaw]

I wouldn’t expect anything less from you. You take tools of the trade & turn them into stunning functional works of art (not that I’d ever have the guts to use them once you’re done with your treatment). You have mad skills sir! Wow!

[suitov]

Yes! This looks metal as hell. The small details made me happy. Please tell your wagging assistants that they did an excellent job.

[samuelronan]

This looks like an anvil that a legendary smith would have in any Fantasy RPG! I love this, every minute of watching this was mesmerizing!
