Quieting the ring on a noisy anvil and mounting to a base
Рет қаралды 1,116,190
Күн бұрынThe anvils ring can have a nostalgic quality to it. But a noisy anvil can also be miserable to work around. Today I re mount my anvil to its base in hope of quieting my loud anvil.Quiet that anvil, you'll have a more peaceful time in the shop

The magnets work because as the anvil vibrates, the magnet has to accelerate towards the anvil since it isn't physically bonded, this lag is out of phase with the vibration so it has the effect of dampening it.

Although the opportunity is not very common; I walk in their shoes and will give an anvil a spank. It surprises me how many people who own an anvil don't know about the bell inside of it.

I miss blacksmithing... As a child i was often at my godfather. He is art smith and makes realy cool things out of metal. Most of the time i made small items such as nails or small animals (a snail is realy easy, great for beginners). There was a history festival one time while i was visiting him and we where showing kids how small and easy things are made (again small animals, small metal smiley for the key and such things). That was great because that was exactly what i used to make and i had a great time while making everyone exactly what they wanted :D Good old times... I wish there where a bigger market for blacksmithing here in germany. I would love to work as one but you cant life from what you get paid because not many people want something handmade anymore. I like this channel, i will stay a while and listen ;)

Looks like you have a nicely appointed shop. A much simpler way to "deaden" an anvil is to attach a ring (2- 3") to a spring from a "bangety bang" screen door, and attach the other end of the spring, to the base of the anvil block. Then just slip the ring over the horn of the anvil. If you need to use the horn for a particular operation, then just slide off the ring. This kept my anvil quiet for more than 20 years.

Another suggestion for those who are on a budget. You can go to either a scrap yard or local tire shop and get you an old tire, and cut out the tread section. Lay them flat on your stump.

Hey Black bear. Use leather friend. It helps drastically and also looks good. Best place to wrap it would be around the neck of the anvil. Also, the ring helps with metal working anyhow. Take care and keep up the craft. Hopefully you can pass your craft off to a grand kid or child. These are crafts that need to always exist. I personally have been working with extracting iron from what most would just a call a rock. Cool stuff.

I built a sand filled metal base similar to the one in the book, Back Yard Blacksmith, by Lorelei Sims, for my smaller European Wrought iron laminated anvil, and I got to tell you, zero ring. Now I got to figure out how to eliminate the ring on my Pendinghaus, which is mounted on a wood base. I'm going to try a rubber mudflap and strap it like you did. I got strong magnets on it which helps, but they keep grabbing the metal from me. If that don't do it, I'll have to weld up another base.

@standaffern6595 6 жыл бұрын
The anvil did tip somewhat during use, so the latest modification was to add 2 ea. 3/4 threaded rods welded to the bottom of the base, and thru the top plate the anvil rests on to apply compression to the sand filled column. Soon as the initial settling stops we shall see if the bolts will eliminate the tilting. One thing I like with this type of base is it is height adjustable. I really enjoy Lorilei's book, I think she did a great job and the photos are excellent. I have also copied her post vice stand on page 37 mounted to a large plate attached to the floor, and I am in the early stages of designing another one similar to the first, but with a 36" round base that you stand on while using, that employs the principle of opposing forces canceling each other, so no movement of vice stand no matter how hard you wrench on vice handle, while at the same time providing the benefit of merely tilting the entire vice stand and rolling across the shop floor to a new location when desired.

Wow, what a great video! You explain things clearly and to the point. I must also say you are an excellent teacher. What a difference your anvil quieting project made. I watched 2 other of your videos before this one (your most popular one) Subscribed! Thumbs up! 👍🏼 PS I've been looking for a quality anvil for a while now, the large Peter Wright anvils are my favorite and it seems are the most rare & expensive.

I recently used silicone under my railroad track anvil and it reduced the sound considerably. And I swear the rebound improved a lot too!

He made it look all so easy for us, so we can thank his years of experience of being a master smithy. Tip Top!

There are thin sheets of elastomer vibration damping material available. Some have adhesive on one side. These sheets are very thin, and don’t look like they will do much, but they do. They’re also cheap. The aluminum 2 x 4 foot version from McMasterCarr, is about $30. I haven’t tried it on an anvil, but putting it on the bottom surfaces of the horn and rear, could help a lot.

My 308lb Soderfors rings loud I'm using a big tow chain and it helps a lot. That's the same way i put mine on the stump with a 2x8 ramp. I think I'm going to mount mine this way. Great idea.👍

I always thought the ring was a sign of a solid (good) anvil with a ball bearing test. Yes I see its loud. Nice dampening of it. I love the anvil.

I've got a demonstration coming up and an anvil that rings like a bell, I'm gonna try to deaden it so that I'm less obnoxious to passerby. Thanks for the video!

Thank you for explaining how to get Mt anvil quiet. It's about a 180 pounder. Curved horn, with a hardy and Pritchett. I think my grand father bought it around 1914.

Spent many an hour listening to my dad’s anvil and my brother’s when they were shoeing horses and making things. I liked the ring then and I like it now.
