I respect your effort mate.I restore only a rusty hammer and I know how hard it was to make it shine.Golden hands you have .Be blessed .

This video is a testament to the power of the simple angle grinder. If you wanna get into knife making, it's one of if not the best tool you can have. Grinding belts are expensive and homemade ones joined with flex tape work but aren't ideal. A lot safer though. I'm fortunate to have a lot of access to oxy and a cutting torch so I don't have to spend hours hogging out material, but I really appreciate the initiative. Railroad track is usually made of low carbon and (relatively) high manganese content for easy continuous casting and hot rolling. The surface of used track is usually work hardened because of the manganese, but you seem to have ground off the hardened case. I can't tell exactly what you're working with but it wouldn't hurt to forge weld a piece of leaf spring steel to the work surface. In this case, forge welding is easier than stick welding. Forge them together and let them anneal in the forge overnight. Heat them back to austenizing temp and quench in oil then temper to light blue. A blue spring temper is really all you need.

Approximately how many cutting wheels did you use for this project?

I like that you polished the striking surfaces, and painted the support. Looks really good, and that's a perfect size for the average person working in their garage. Very useful item you made.

Beautiful work mate, to nice to use! I bet your neighbours just loved the sound of that angle grinder, not to mention the cost of discs! Great job just the same.

Wow, what a work of art. I don't think I would even use that for blacksmithing. I would just display it in my shop. That is allot of skill you carry in your hands.

Доброго здоровья мастер! Восхитительное упорство, целеустремлённость, трудолюбие и мастерство! Всех Вам БЛАГ!👍👍👍

Amazing tools that can cut and shape such a heavy and thick iron track. But the biggest applause goes to the person doing this job so perfectly!! He is a superb craftsman!! Hats off to his skill !!

You should market this as an award for railroad companies to buy. This craftsmanship is amazing! You REALLY do have something here. Take that idea and run with it!

You made an old piece of railroad track into an Anvil piece of art. I wouldn't want to hammer anything on it. I'd rather display it. Nice craftsmanship.

Appreciate you showing how you did this using one basic angle grinder (WITH the guard on the whole time), and some files. It may have taken a while but most railroad track anvil videos you find feature massive angle grinders, milling machines, and fancy metal bandsaws. Since I possess none of these items, I had resigned myself to my piece of railroad track just remaining in its railroad track-form and forging on that, but you have inspired me to take a stab at reshaping it into a better anvil!

😃😳😮😳😮😃😃😃 DUDE‼️😃 You’re an amazing Metal Artisan‼️

I dare you to use it! Come on, I double-dare ya! If I did all that, I'd put it in my living room as an art piece. Really impressive work. Thanks for sharing.

How lucky to find a freshly cut piece of rail track in a pile of old steel! ;-)

Wow! That's an absolutely beautiful Anvil! That's like a piece of Artwork in itself, in addition to being a really useful metalworking tool. Great video - Nicely Done!

That looked like it wasn't easy,as you stated in the beginning. However, that little anvil turned out beautiful. Most definitely a labor of love. Appreciate you posting this video. Excellent transformation! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I need that! I used to use a piece of train track in the past, it’s fairly useful but this looks to nice to use. Good job

One of the most amazing pieces of railroad track, a piece that does not rust at the ends.

Just a gorgeous result! Fantastic work.

Phenomenal work, my man. Goes to show what the versatility of an angle grinder, and a lot of elbow grease can do. Thumb'd & subbed.

Watched this video start to finish with absolute amazement! The level of skill and craftsmanship this dude possesses is off the friggin scale!

A lot of hard work and obvious creativity. Beautiful end result. Bravo!

I did this very thing last year and made an anvil. The hardest part of making it was drilling out the hole for the Hardy hole. It was a lot of fun!

Maravilhoso ! Não dá coragem de usar . Serve como peça decorativa . Parabéns pelo lindo trabalho . São Carlos -SP , BRASIL.

This very amazing Anvil 🤩your hard work pays off this rusty railroad that you turn into an amazing Anvil 👍👍👍

Fantastic job, Anvil looks amazing and great polished finish. Thanks for sharing.

Like most master crafsmen, you make this look easy, but we all know just what an enormous task this must have been. Well done.

I've had this yard long piece of rail now for a few years, you just pushed me over the edge mate. Thanks!

This is the best creative and forging perfect channel that i ever watch , with no dialogues , no special machine , only a guy with many full free time can do this

That's absolutely incredible. You have something that you should always be proud of.

Absolutely brilliant piece of workmanship, really interesting video. Unfortunately here in the UK a piece of railway track large enough to make an an anvil is prohibitively expensive. Loved the video.

I made a RR track anvil couple years ago. Most used anvil in shop. The sharp pointed horn is so useful. Shame nearly all antiques have blunted horns, but I understand why. They break off, then you round the end. Some blunted the tip before it breaks off.

Awesome work and a beautiful outcome. What I want to know is, how many grinding discs did you end up going through😂

that anvil looks so nice, i don't think anyone would metalwork in that 😂

That turned out beautiful, but that is a lot of work to create such a masterpiece.. thx for bringing us along... Take care my friend and God Bless you and your family...

Gorgeous. Watching this made me miss my uncle and hanging out in his workshop as a little girl so much. Everything in me wanted to call and ask him to make me one.

An absolute work of art! Beautiful!

The most beautiful piece of metal i've ever seen

This illustrate nicely how valuable an angle grinder such as used here can be in every homework shop. It has many uses that you are always finding for it..

The hardest part about doing this is keeping the top flat. Its extremely easy to dish out the top or create a hump. You did a good job keeping it flat!

How many hours did it take to complete this anvil? It’s beautiful! Thanks

Just a heads up for anyone watching you actually get a more practical railroad track anvil by mounting it in its end. You want as much solid iron or steel as possible directly underneath your hammer the orientation shown in this video will feel springy and make you work a lot harder to get the same amount of work done.

WOW. Absolutely fascinating! Beautiful work with a few hand tools. Now, that's talent! I can only wonder what this handmade anvil would be worth.

A man whose ability to transcend numb hands and aching forearms has produced a work of art.

Its 2.30 in the morning and I am watching this ?? Oh Boy !

This might be my favorite one from your channel

sometimes, it’s ok to invest in better tools like plasma cutters and/or industrial bandsaws. LOL! halfway through and seeing you use the hacksaw, I literal yelled “BRUH…” And that’s followed by “…I USE ONLY SIMPLE TOOLS!!!!!!!” text across the screen, and I fell out of my seat laughing. This was an exercise in determination; but regardless, the anvil came out beautifully.

Patience and desire to complete. Awesome 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

That is art, thank you for sharing!

Bạn chia sẻ video hay 👍

Al that work making it look beautiful and you couldn't be bothered to get all the rust off before panting it!

Stunning I'd display it differently a talking point brilliant and top quality from a very talented person 🇬🇧 uk

This tiny anvil is so cute! Can't wait to see you use it in your next videos...

This is a massive effort, beautifully overworked where with a whole lot less effort on finish it would still serve the same pracitcal purpose as an anvil. Visually satisfying result

Dam dude, your a beast!!! What an awesome job u did, the craftsmanship is beautiful, u are a great artist and I enjoyed watching the process of this!!! Thx! Keep making cool stuff and I'll keep watching!!👍👍👍

Very nice! Your patience with the hacksaw is amazing.

Good working keep it up thanks for sharing your experience Long live happy with your family and friends

Super tare 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Just the sight of you sawing the rail with a hacksaw made my hands feel sick, the steel in the rails is extremely strong, I can’t even imagine how much effort you spent on it 4:05-4:20

I think it’s really good that you do this stuff because people think it’s to hard but when I watch your videos I realise that I’m just using the wrong technique keep up the good work

Just came across your video And I must say that anvil is a beautiful piece of Art.! My hats off to you. Just beautiful

You should had hit the anvil at the end to hear that beautiful sound it emites

Really nice job, more like a piece of art than an implement.

Đã là fan thì mãi mãi là fan😉💗

Fanstastic work 👏👌 thanks my friend👍👍

Love the sound that rings off of that type of steal.

I always find pieces of train rail on the street. Now I know what to make.

Excellent workmanship!

Молодец отличная работа, сколько труда и терпения

Nagyon szép munka! Én sajnálnák dolgozni rajta! Ezt a darabot ki kellene múzeumban állítani! Gratulálok!

Unbelievable!!!! The human determination is truly a remarkable thing!

Great job. I just picked up one of those rails. This give me something to shoot for.

Very nice!! A lot of hard work a ten minute video can't portray properly. You are a craftsman, a rare breed nowadays.

yes beautiful wok, congratulations 👍👍👍👍

Looks so modernized and gorgeous

I like the part where you fed the meadow mole. But seriously nice job on the anvil

amazing job of patience! Great one!

i love the ASMR in this video

AMAZING PATIENCE, AND A FANTASTIC RESULT. WOULD,NT HAVE THOUGHT IT POSSIBLE.

Please list how many cutting and grinding wheels were used in this project.

That was amazing craftsmanship end result is a beautiful anvil never saw one that nice. Thanks for sharing

This guy is great. I might try blacksmithing sometine

I think my angle grinder would die on me during a build like this and I would go through dozens of disks

Utterly gorgeous ....thank you

Beautiful job, a true craftsman you are. Thank You

Outstanding work! Congrats.

That’s more of a wonderful gift rather than a tool.

Excelente muito bom gostei demais !

That’s incredible. it’s like a work of art. Nice job.

Simply job but awesome result..👍❤️❤️

great skills there, well done. it certainly is a beauty

Really nice work. Great profile too.

VERY NICE !!! Rail Track Steel, and old leaf Springs are usually Excellent Quality Steel, AND There's a Wealth of scrap out there, FREE For the taking--- Excellent for many Projects !!!!!!

A hand hacksaw on a railroad tie is the antithesis of fun.

That's a piece of art.

Outstanding work!! … I would never have the time to get this done… Much less have it appear anywhere near as nice as your anvil… You should build more and sell them!

You are the Wizard of iron

Beautiful indeed

There is almost incomparable beauty in polished steel
