I'm in the process of building an anvil stand for the 110 pound cast steel Harbor Freight special. If I ever do enough blacksmithing to justify it, I may someday look at getting a more serious anvil.
I am using the treated 4X4's with a 5degree angle on the ends to a slight upside down V.
To reduce noise and increase stability, what is the best way to attach the anvil to the top? Somewhere I read a suggestion of putting down several washers and then a layer of silicon glue????
I'd really appreciate any ideas. I'd like to keep the noise down to a minimum for my neighbors, Thanks, Phil W.
