Thought I'd contribute a bit and do a short video on how I took the ring out of my anvil.
I'm sure like a lot of you, you have a what amounts to a church bell that rings with every hammer blow. With my neighbors sleeping during the day, I'm always keen to eliminate as much noise as I can. That and I don't want to ruin what's left of my hearing with that high pitch noise.
So, I did some experimentation. The thinner parts of the anvil are the ones that resonate the most. So I tinkered.
Keep in mind that the microphone on the camera isn't the best, so the ring of the bell isn't as loud as it is in real life.
