    Beats me. I've been trying to get rid of it for years. I tried to get our city historical society to take it, I tried to get the museum of history and industry to take it. Everyone is always super enthusiastic about then nothing. At this point I'm going to send it to our salvage department and let them do as they please.

    The total assembly is 32,000 lbs. I work for Seattle City Light, we have an old steam plant that has been turned into a museum of sorts. It would be perfect down there, but like all city stuff it just never seems to work out.

    Anyone know of where I might be able to find an anvil at a reasonable price? I'm in Va but willing to travel for the right piece at the right price.
