#sponsored For this week’s
#tooltalktuesday I am very excited to show off the Swanstrom Multi-Purpose Forming Anvil (Item #: 111720), available exclusively from our friends @riogrande. I mounted this compact anvil to the edge of my work bench and it is an ideal work surface for smaller forming tasks. You can also take it on the go if you are wanting to do demonstrations at a show or in a classroom. The interchangeable flat top surface and interchangeable mandrels are S7 alloy tool steel for toughness on high impact. They are also replaceable making it a good long term investment for your tool box. As far as what you can use this for - you can shape rings, slim bracelets, earring wires, curved components or bezels. You can also use the flat top to stamp smaller items. Two stepped and two tapered mandrel shapes are included and they easily attach using an Allen wrench. I don’t have it but there is also a universal mounting adapter, designed for use with the anvil; it supports a variety of tools and tool holders, significantly increasing the versatility of this anvil. So quite a lot you can do with it! This anvil retails for $299 however Rio Grande is offering our community %10 off ($261.25) with code MTLSMTH7 now through 12.31.21. So you can certainly add this to your wishlist and still take advantage of the awesome deal. Thank you Rio for your support of the page and thank you to everyone tuning in, would love to hear other people’s experience with this great tool!
