A proven way to make an anvil from a rail
Hello everyone!
I continue the series of articles dedicated to the construction ingenuity of a simple Russian foreman Yakov Izrailevich. Today I am sharing a unique anvil that he left as a legacy after the construction of our house.
The anvil is made of rail.
In appearance from the tramway: the railroad should be thicker.
But the main point is not that Yakov Izrailevich somewhere he got a rail, but in how he fixed it.
Look, in the photo - a rail fixed in an ordinary stump:
An ordinary aspen, a hacksaw, a rail, chisels of different widths and an hour of work of ordinary builders - and a solid anvil is ready!
The most difficult thing is to fit the drunk to the rail along the entire thickness of the tree.
Despite all the caustic comments, this anvil has been in service for over three years. But initially everyone around was repeating:
- make a metal ring, otherwise the stump will fall apart;
- the stump will dry out over time, water it with water;
- pull the log with a rope at the top, etc.
Despite the lies of skeptics, more than one hundred nails have been straightened on the anvil and a lot of chips for the barbecue have been impaled. Such is "adapted" from a simple Russian foreman Yakov Izrailevich.
