Can you post a picture of the Anvil you mentioned?I used a Railroad spike I made a small rivet anvil from with small holes in the top to use for peening rivet's with that works well. I use pretty much brass rod I get at a hobby shop that works great! I want to start making my own washers from brass sheet.
I will have to find it. We moved over 4 years ago And I am still finding all kinds of razors & stones in my shop!Can you post a picture of the Anvil you mentioned?
