Bought a cheap anvil stand online and it cost me more than just money
I thought I was saving cash by getting a $300 anvil stand from a website I found. It arrived and looked fine for about a month. Then during a normal shoeing session, the whole thing started to wobble and one of the legs bent. I had to stop work, which meant losing a full day's pay, about $400. On top of that, I had to rush order a proper stand from a real supplier. I should have just gone with the heavy duty one my buddy recommended from the start. Anyone have a solid brand they trust for stands that can take a real beating?

So you learned the hard way that a cheap stand is just a wobbly IOU for a real one, huh? I bet that bent leg looked like modern art... the kind that costs you four hundred bucks. @the_faith knows it's a big deal, and honestly, that's the real price tag. My old stand shook so bad it sounded like a bucket of bolts, and my anvil nearly became a floor decoration. Sometimes the right tool is just the one that doesn't try to quit on you mid-swing.
