Roger Degner on making hollow anvils and hollow swage blocks

Here's a youtube video that I made of Roger Degner telling me how he made his hollow anvil and hollow swage block. He has made at least two anvils this way. I bought the first one he made at the Guild of Metalsmiths annual conference ("the Madness") several years ago.

That is kinda creative and cool.

Not for pounding, but show and tell, it would be great.

Should be somewhat easy on a CNC plasma table - and simply washer out the horn like he said. Welding is the tricky part - getting deep coverage so grinding it smooth without much hole coverage.

Nice - use the same steel to weld with and the lines don't sow.
