Went to Midwest Forge Fest last month and saw a dangerous anvil setup
I was walking around the demo area and noticed a guy had his anvil sitting on a stack of loose fire bricks. Looked shaky but he was hammering away on a 3/4 inch bar. Right when he hit a hard spot the whole thing shifted and almost tipped into the firepot. Nobody else seemed to notice but I had to say something. Has anyone else seen sketchy anvil stands at these events?

Loose fire bricks, yikes. A few loose ones under there and the whole thing's a wobbly mess waiting to happen. I've seen guys use dirt mounds or sand bags way more stable than that.
