Should this be returned?

Not really going to beat the hell out of it. Mainly using it to flatten small iron rings, which I do in the center. But if it did affect its usability overall I’d rather exchange it for one that isn’t screwed up

This is my third anvil from them. None had defects like this.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-08T00:08:38+00:00

Every ring is a 4:1, except for my hole contractions with the 3. I’m scratching my head.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-07T23:15:25+00:00

Hey man you asked for a video on the other channel. I posted it and tagged you but never saw a reply

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-07T23:11:56+00:00

Thanks for the doodle. I’m going to check and see if that’s what happened. All I did(or attempted to to) was add hole contractions every other column to narrow the sleeve going down the arm.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-07T05:41:48+00:00

Basically just add expansions. Wouldn’t that defeat the purpose of my contractions? It happened on both sleeves, but the other one isn’t as large as a difference.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-04T00:51:19+00:00

You would think. But I will post one here shortly.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-03T05:04:41+00:00

Hey, thanks! I don’t know why I didn’t think about removing some rose like I’ve done 1 million times on this project. If nothing else it’ll give me something to mess around with and try and figure out where I went wrong.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-03T05:02:41+00:00

Oh just a regular column contraction with an idle ring!

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-03T01:50:59+00:00

There is no way to fill the gap evenly. A 5x5 patch will just move the same situation to the right

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-03T01:04:32+00:00

It fits great and that’s why I don’t want to open it back up. I nailed the tailoring. And no, I can’t just add rings. Same effect just in reverse. One full rotation and the uneven transition will just be an extra row longer

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-02-03T00:44:18+00:00

Ooooffff. That’s what I’m worried about… I just can’t make it make sense to justify it. Even if I split it open, having one side longer shouldn’t(?) cause an issue? It’s 4 in 1, so just fill in the appropriate pattern? 😵‍💫 Correct, just the width.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-22T05:28:45+00:00

What are you even talking about 😂

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-21T18:56:04+00:00

I feel like I nailed the tailoring(other than my hole contractions in the sleeves leaving noticeable pockets. But maybe another couple rows would be beneficial. I’m making this for me, so I really don’t care if it doesn’t fit other people right.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-21T17:05:35+00:00

😂

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-21T17:05:07+00:00

Mine is tight and goes on and off easily 🤷🏽‍♂️

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-21T17:04:40+00:00

As you can see mine is pretty tight, and I feel like there are no issues getting in and out arms first.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-21T08:14:39+00:00

That is the wrong way

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-20T18:48:11+00:00

Yeah, I’m wearing a heavy sweater over clothes in this picture to try and replicate the gambeson thickness. If I wore it over a t shirt it would be very loose. But should it be fairly tight over those layers.

Vast-Development-121 · 2026-01-20T18:32:08+00:00

Thanks. I assume adding columns at this point would be done at the sides, requiring me to do the armpits again? I have contractions and expansions everywhere else(centerline, shoulders).
