I know this comment is late to the mix, but, I just watched the video. #57 stone is a mixture designation by ASTM (American Society for Testing & Materials). Specific sieve sizes are designated for this aggregate. This, along with other tests, help to assure uniformity in the production of concrete. These tests are utilized by engineers to produce mixtures to certain compressive strengths.

I got a 100lb anvil for $10.00. I was a runner at an auction. I noticed some of the good old boys going out back and looking at something. When they went back in the auction barn. I went and looked at what they were looking at. It was an old 100lb anvil in the weeds. I picked up and brought in. I set in front of the auctioneer. He asked for bids. The old timers were going to steel it. Well there were so angry they refused to bid on it. So I bid $10.00 took it home. I still have it.

57 gravel size is a mixture of size 5 and size 7. The reason for the mix is compaction, do not use on bare ground .. Put down geo textile mat, cover with #2 , pack down, put down #6, pack down, cover with waste, pac down. Do ground prep so the road is not a waterway and washes away your gravel.

I found out a good way to take out the stink bugs and a lot of other insects. Get a spray bottle fill it with water and put a couple of squirts of liquid dawn dish soap. Mix/shake the bottle and spray about 2-3 sprays per bug and they will expire within 30 seconds after spraying them. Its a good way I have been protecting the homestead and plants over the last couple of years without using some poison / toxic chemicals.

A trunk anvil base I a classic ,the end grain will work better as base than the side of the wood , less bonsy and take pressure forces better . Bigger Mecanical hammers are placed on standing pieces of wood surfaces to prevent the whole thing ibreaking the floor when Operating. Mill out foot print impression Of the anvil in the overiside . Scrimp on warm steel rings on the base to prevent cracking . Put tool holders in the sides. Bigger anvills may benefit from being removable from the base , to lighten the thing when handling it .

White oak stump, debarked. If you can get one with a bit of swell to the base so it won't want to tip. To prevent splitting put on a metal band. You might even try hot banding it if your forge is long enough to get the band hot enough to be pliable for the wrap. I saw where several folk suggested Osage orange/Bois d Ark, that is a very dense wood and very hard. Don't usually find logs large enough for lumber but a stump for the anvil would be awesome. The yellow/orangeish color would look good as well. We use the branches and saplings as fence posts now a days. They use to use it as wheel spokes, very durable and rot resistant. Not easy to split which would work well for your anvil base. Nice looking hunk of metal, enjoy it. Good luck and have fun. Be well Sir, May the Lord bless you and yours all the days of your life.

Exactly! Who uses 8' cherry anyway? When I haul a "banana" log to the sawmill to be sawed, that is what I ask of them. Lay it on its side and slab it. Then, I'll take slabs home and straight line them. But first, I might cut them into 2 shorter pieces at the bend so I have less waste, only the sapwood. I have built a lot of cabinets in my years( I'm 72) and most pieces that go into a cabinet or a piece of furniture are less than 4'.

Dinner - venison stew from the front shoulders of this year's first deer. As for the base for the anvil, pick a great round of wood, cut it to your perfect height for you, and wrap it so it doesn't split. Unless you want to turn it into an art project or something you want to put time into just because, there is no positive outcome of sawn walnut for the base, because you will have to replace it. Typically, all of our anvils are on pecan or oak cut out rounds. One of the anvils still sits on a round that is at least 70 years old, because I have pics of my dad using it when he was a wee lad.

Home Defense Max will keep them away. Get a gallon from Walmart and spray it on everything especially the ceiling and walls of the saw shed. It will keep every bug and spider out of the shed. I have a open metal carport like that that I keep all kinds of stuff under and a shed roof over my porch that's open on two sides. I spray everything under both with that stuff every 6 months and it works. Also spray it heavily on the top 6 inches of my foundation where the house meets it and around the windows and doors every 6 months too and I have no bugs, ants, or spiders in my house.
