HOW TO: 100lb Anvil Stand

In this video I make a 100 pound stand for my 122 lb Peter Wright Anvil. This is an easy project and makes for a really study base to hammer on.

This stand is made up of about 10 - 8' 2"x3"s, and 2 - 50lb bags of play sand.

The total cost of the project was about $50 US.

This stand is based on a design posted by @doghouseforge on instagram last year.
