anvils

[dtec1]

ok....yeh I aint that good at welding to attempt it but I have heard of people doing it but if your right better to just get a proper anvil...is there anyway to tell from a pic what material a anvil could be? my uncle came over last night and he was helping a friend clean out a shed last week and they found 2 anvils one about 250 pound one about 500....the guy gave him the smaller one for $50!....honestly my uncle doesn't need a big anvil I think it was more that he knew it was a great deal and wanted it just to have....he said he is positive it is not cast iron....he said he is going to try and clean it up a lil and send me pics today or tomorrow...the guy he was helping said he hasn't touched them in years and forgot they were even there. I am goin to his house next week so I can look at it then but idk if I could see what it is from a pic
