    Gorgeous work, Tuomas. The finish is fine enough to use the anvil for making jewelry; no marks left in the gold by the anvil. You're a real artist with that grinder too.

    Thank you very much.

    Nice that you have same toughts. I like that anvil in this size, needs to have a smooth surface, then it doesn't leave " stamps " to the workpiece.

    It was mentioned in first pinned comment.

    Tools and abrasives used:

    Metabo WE 2200-230 230mm angle grinder with 2mm thick 3M cubitron 2 cut off wheels. For making the cuts. Making all cuts took about 3 wheels.

    Metabo WEV 11-125 Quick 125mm 1100W angle grinder with 3M cubitron fibre disc. For rough shaping and smoothening. Used two 36grit wheels.

    METABO W 750-125 125mm 750W angle grinder with 3M Roloc pad.
    Used: 60,80 and 120 grit Roloc cubitron papers. Two pcs each.
    Brown, red and blue 3M Scotch brite finishing pads. One pcs each.

    Anvil was made during two days.
