Here is a #diy stump and tool holder from @leewarddesignsmi - “When I imagined my new studio, I knew that it would include an anvil. Then on the Facebook marketplace I stumbled upon this Hay-Budden; 125 pounds of vintage beauty. Every piece made in my studio is impressed in one way or another by markings that have been added over the past 100 years by countless, unknown smiths. ⚒
How to display her was a given! We were very careful of falling only the absolute minimum number of trees we needed while clearing our homesite and I knew one would be saved for an anvil base. This particular tree was an ash, victim to the emerald ash borer (see the larva’s squiggly patterns on the stump?) 😪
Add a goodwill leather belt for $1 with a handful of screws and she was all setup! 🖤” This is absolutely beautiful. That belt has a home for each tool and I LOVE it. Thanks for taking the time to share with us!! #toolstorage #recycled #studio #jewelrystudio #jewelersanvil
