1940s Fisher Anvil Restoration - Making an Anvil Stand.
I restored "1940s Fisher-Norris anvil and making an anvil stand in the video. "Made in U.S.A." Fisher-Norris was the first large scale manufacturer of anvils in the U.S, found in 1843. They used a patent process that welded a tool steel plate onto a cast iron body in the mold when the anvil was cast. Up until this time all good anvils were forged from wrought iron and faced with tool steel that was forge welded to the body.The Fisher process produced an economical and very servicable anvil. They are also much quieter than wrought or all steel anvils which ring like a bell. Fisher-Norris anvils are often called “City Men’s anvil” because they don’t ring. This 100 lbs example was probably made in WW2 era, it doesn’t have the Eagle logo, Fisher stampings or the weight numbers on it. To fasten the production rate, it is possible that they have removed those markings. Don't forget subscribe to my channel and like these videos please. Thank you for watching.
