Wow! You guys make me look like stone-age man. I am the proud owner of a 40 pound chunk of rail road rail. I have shaped it a bit on one end for a nice radius where it was cut with a torch. Makes a good edge to shape a lip over. It is hard, no hammer marks so far. But it will move around on the bench when used. Good news, I can move it to different positions, so an even draw on that point. Not as many shape areas but I can get what I need with it most times. For flat stuff, well I use it the long way. It is almost 2 feet long. It sets on the floor by the drill press( I don't trip over it there) and it makes you think before you lift it to the work bench. Now I will be looking at anvils. The wife said you guys are not helping. Thanks!
