Anvil hardy bridge

Attachment 37972
I modified this bridge after seeing a proper one on Pinterest.

Mine is made from U channel and yesterday I cut part of it off and forged a bick on it.
This morning I re-welded the stake to the side.
Then I used it to finish forging a fork.(This is a bit left over from the pivoting jaw tongs q.v.)

If there are any cutlers reading this, look away now!

How many must a Sheffield cutler forge in an hour?
To the left of the fork, the bridge has a cut out, with a bevel below. I thought that this might help if making penny scrolls.
My son wants unusual utensils for his food photography, so this is quite unusual. Whenever I make something with three prongs, it looks as though it would be used by witches, or cannibals.

This accessory is quite discordant on the anvil, and I looked for an old soldering mat to suppress the noise. I didn’t find it,but a magnet helps. (See 2nd picture)

Great idea, Philip. Love the bick. I could see adding a little square horn on the other side.
