A soldier or farmer driving a 4WD as a job always looks for the easiest route. The amateur enthusiasts are always looking for new callenges- muddier trails, steeper hills etc. If, however, you enjoy the hobby and are not fully booked with paying jobs then make stuff.
From a purely commercial point of view I am sure the best thing to do is buy tool steel of known quality, buy tongs and an anvil and a hardy! The amount of time spent on making most tongs would actually make them far more expensive than shop bought. The thing is that if it is a hobby then a lot of the fun is in scratching round and visiting sales etc. a custom knife then I doubt if they are making minimum wage let alone any return on their investment in equipment. If you look at how little lots of guys charge for e.g. I am one of those I suppose although I do get paid to teach blacksmithing and general metalwork. If it turns them a shekel or two then that is extra. Tyro, a lot of guys are doing thsi activity as a hobby. I only have $300 allotted for an anvil, and I'm already taking that purchase quite seriously. The truth is, until I start making money with blacksmith work, I simply would no be able to afford spending $1,000+ for an anvil. Nimba comes to mind because they are a Northwest company and from what I've heard, produce a quality product. I really wish that I could afford a new anvil. Perhaps this is an indication that it's really time to start supporting these businesses who are desperately trying to keep the industry alive for the backyard/small shop blacksmith. Also the diversity of anvil manufacturers will narrow down to even fewer sources then there are today. I look at it this way, if foundry's stop making new anvils (because of expense or lack of demand) and the old anvils (those in any kind of decent condition) start getting harder to find then the price of anvils are going to skyrocket out of rarity. It may make new smiths more serious about the investment in anvils and it will help those who are working on making superior brand new anvils stay afloat in these hard times. It may make smiths turn to new Anvils, save up a summers or twos worth of cash before purchase. You know there is one silver lining in all this hard to find anvil business.
I still want to kick this anvil-hoarding guy in the head I still want to kick this anvil-hoarding guy in the head Edited Jby mod07 There's a 140# for sale a few hours drive from me, but the guy still hasn't sent any pictures. I hear murmurings that there's a guy in the area with 7 anvils for sale.he still hasn't bothered to contact me. I've put the word out there, asked everyone I know, cruised garage sales, ebay, craigslist. I also had some guy in an antique store start yelling at me and almost chase me out of his store with a broom handle when I pointed out that his "really nice" anvil was a harbor freight aso that looked as though it had been dragged behind a truck for several hours. I had some lady try to convince me that a 110 lb Vulcan was brought over on the Oregon trail. In my search for anvils I have had encounters with ****, I think you guys need to spend less time complaining about anvil collectors, a little less time complaining on this forum, and a little more time looking for them and maybe then you will find one!
