While trying out my new micro forge today, I managed to split the piece of granite countertop I've been using as an anvil split rather badly to the point of being unusable. Are there any suggestions (apart from the obvious buy an anvil) to things I could use as such? 2 reasons wanting to improvise one, anyone that knows me knows I like to make as much of my gear as possible and upcycle things otherwise overlooked. And 2 while my dear Steph is a very understanding woman I can't see her being too happy about me plonking a cast anvil in the garden.
Ideally something smallish so it can live in or behind the shed.
Any smiths, farriers or hobbyists like me out there that I could glean this information from I will be ever grateful.
