Anvil Shaped Object
Mike H:
Thanks for suggestions
Went to a scrap yard this afternoon
Fellow who walked up and said can I help you
when asked if they had any tool steel said
I don't know much about metal?
Hopefully recent hire
Anyhow no luck there
Would like to finish the project so will look around a little more
In truth this thing will probably be used more for straightening nails
than any serious smithing
wvtools:
I have tubs full of pieces of steel I am saving for when I retire or when I die (more likely). If you nudge me with a PM tomorrow night or the next day and can wait a few days, I will walk to the back barn and see what I have. I would sell a piece for not very much if I have it, and that size would fit in a flat rate box.
wvtools:
My schedule is all out of whack because of a death in my wife's family. I will not be able to look for a piece of metal until Monday night.

WV Tools:
Sorry to hear that news
There is no hurry at all as I haven't even finished the
rough shaping on that thing

Mike,
I am sorry, but the biggest piece I could find is 8 5/8L x 2 1/2W x 1H. I really thought I had one about the size you need leftover from a machinist's estate, but I do not know where it is.
