My Premier Project Plans: paskmakes.com/premier-project...
My Free Plans: paskmakes.com/free-plans/
When I made my carving gouges in a recent video I realised I needed a hardy hole to help with certain blacksmithing tasks. As my little anvil doesn't have a hardy hole and the fact a proper anvil is out of my reach, I put my mind to how I could get around it. This is what I came up with and I reckon it will do the job just fine!
I called it a '$20 anvil' as the steel cost me $5 plus a small amount of mild steel (a couple of dollars), 4 coach bolts and welding wire. $20 would be about correct!
Hopefully the video will be useful to others and show that there's quite often ways of getting a job done even if you don't have the correct tools!
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

You guys are either the manliest men on the planet or just freaking insane. From the few Aussies I've gotten to know in Canada I'd have to say the jury's still out. Got video, got you a sub. Cheers.

Over three years after you made it, this video continues to be useful indeed. For me, it's good to know that my very pitiful little anvil, made of a railroad tie-plate, is a legitimate anvil after all! Also did not know about the soft steel being safer for an anvil surface. I started out by just using what's available to me; it happened to be just the right thing. Thanks!

4:46: This is a good sign. It means plenty of scrap wood challenges to come! Neil, you went up a point today in my esteem of you when I saw the Ozito name - really is the bummiest bum end of tools if ever a bum there was - being utilised by a true craftsman. And so I realised something that I always kind of knew: that there are those who must have the best of everything, and there are those who will always make the best out of anything.

Well spotted - a new pile of scrapwood! Thanks Dave, I learned with that welder and it still does what I need but I'm probably ready to upgrade now. I don't see the point of getting the best when you're learning (unless of course you can easily afford it) if it doesn't work out and you don't enjoy it, you haven't lost too much! :)

The snake is a Coastal Carpet Python....Morelia Spilota McDowelli. Some information for those of you not familiar with Australian wildlife; This is a subspecies of Morelia spilota and usually attains lengths of 2.7-3 m (9-10 feet) in length. Dorsally they are generally olive brown to tan in color with paler blotches and stripes. The pattern and colour are highly variable. Midbody scales in 40-60 rows. They have a single anal scale and their subcaudal scales are divided. Most of the head scales are small, beadlike and arranged irregularly. Habitat and range They are widespread in Australia in eastern Queensland and northeastern New South Wales. They may be encountered on the ground, draped across boughs of trees or coiled up in undergrowth. They are frequently found residing in the roofs of houses even in well settled suburban areas, rainforest, wet or dry eucalypt forest, heathland, pasture, agricultural and urban areas. They are active by day or night (nocturnal and diurnal) feeding mainly on "warm blooded" prey like possums, rats, flying foxes and birds, and occasionally poultry, domestic cats and small dogs. Attempts at eating cane toads are fatal. They lay up to ~35 eggs (so watch out, Neil. I think she has found a place to lay her eggs!). They sometimes exhibit unpredictable and aggressive behaviour, particularly when nesting. Bites are not venomous, however the bites can cause lacerations. Common in Queensland and the best pest control one can get for free. I am a snake catcher in Airlie Beach and I have relocated many large specimens up to about 3m without any problems. Love your work, Neil. Keep up the great videos. I love watching you work.

@@PaskMakes You will probably find the snake is in more danger from the dogs as they are JRT's and they will team up against the snake if they cross paths. Carpets tend to be nocturnal and rest during the day, so the pups will only encounter it if they find it on the ground during the day. As the dogs are regular visitors to the shop, this is unlikely. If they do, just remove them from the scene. See if you can encourage the snake to move until it relocates itself higher up and out of harms way.

I like that you folks in Australia use the word “reckon” about as much as we do here in the Southeastern U.S. (East Tennessee). I also had a black snake about four foot long hanging out in my little shops last summer. He didn’t really bother me, kind of give me a little start when he fell out of the rafters one day but he helps keep the rats and mice in check. I’ve wanted an anvil for years but can’t justify the cost. Enjoyed the video, again. I reckon I’ve watched it a couple of times. Nicely done sir.

Just a tip - when putting down the angle grinder, turn it the other way (upside down). That's actually the proper way. Took me a while to get used to it, but it's much safer. You don't risk breaking the disk, or having the grinder run around the shop

Nice idea for a striking anvil and it turned out really well. 😊 On a different note, I like snakes, but carrying on working with one that size hanging around........ are you crazy?!?!?!

From the sound of it, he's in a reasonably rural sort of area, though, having said that, their native habitat can be found anywhere, even quite close to city centres. The human density tends to disagree with them, so they either move on, or are moved on. You only have to go half am hour from the city to find pretty dense scrub land that would pretty comfortably support creatures that size, were it not for human traffic nearby. But as many have said, pythons are non-venomous, posing threats mainly to chickens and small pets. They do a good job of keeping vermin in check, possums out of rooves, etc. They pose minimal threat to our lifestyle, unless they find their way inside, but even then, they just get relocated. Knowing of this beautiful serpent's presence, I wouldn't doubt that little dog stays inside at night!

Thank you for making this video! Finding a piece of railway track to use is extremely difficult for me even though I live in a railway town. After a talk with my areas CN office they destroyed my dream of getting a small section of track, but these joiners can be found tossed away beside the tracks (I'm assuming from maintenance, as most are rusty or have surface damage). When spring comes I'll walk the tracks until I find one then turn it into one of these anvils! Thank you yet again!
