or the stove.
plus, my vise/anvil is very securely mounted to a worktable built in the basement, I'd have to disassemble it to get it outside.

We always used short lengths of railroad track for anvils.

When f3 and I were youts, track was being left unused or being torn up and not replaced quite widely. Railroad right of ways were falling into disuse and people were actually trying to gain control of them by adverse possession. Even our high school metal shop had a stack of used rails. It was the end of useful railroading, we just didn't know it.

True, much of the track near my house has been salvaged or buried, and at crossings, paved over.
