All of these other methods are almost useless if the anvil is not mounted correctly. The most crucial factor in silencing the anvil is proper mounting. Mounting the Anvil on a Solid Metal Stand Usually, the more magnets you use and the bigger they are, the better. The only way to find out is to try it personally and see what happens. Some people place magnets on the side of the anvil and still have good results. We personally found that placing one magnet under the horn and two below the heel gives us the best result. Depending on the intensity of the magnet, a certain amount of them should be placed. Typically, the biggest effect is noticed when magnets are placed under the horn and under the heel. The best way to find out is to move the magnet around the anvil and see where it has the most effect.

So if vibration happens in specific places of the anvil, by placing a magnet on those places, you will reduce the vibrations significantly. When an anvil rings, note that there are areas of the anvil that vibrate a lot and parts that aren’t. These people probably used weak magnets, not enough of them, or they simply placed them in the wrong places on the anvil. Remember, it is not the magnetic attraction that reduces the noise, it is the absorption of the vibration, which reduces the noise. Note that most people don’t understand the basics of sound. Now, some people are claiming that this method hasn’t had any effect on reducing vibration. Placing magnets on the anvil is also one of the simplest and cheapest ways to reduce the ringing noise. This is one of the common ways of quieting the anvil. Keep in mind that you can’t entirely silence the anvil, but you can make still reduce it significantly. Even the ones who live in the city and have “good “neighbors, I guarantee you that they will not be “good “for a long time listening to you striking the anvil. On the other hand, if you live outside the city and don’t have any neighbors near the workshop, you are the lucky one. As we said, not only is it annoying, but it is also harmful. Now, imagine living near the blacksmith’s neighbor and continuously listening to this noise. Since the anvil is used every day in the blacksmithing shop, that makes the problem even worse. I really doubt that your neighbors enjoy hearing that annoying noise coming from the workshop. There is one more problem with the ringing anvil, and that is the neighbors. Nobody wants to work in such a loud environment where the noise makes it impossible to concentrate on the work adequately. That is not only beneficial from a health standpoint but also from a practical standpoint. To minimize the risk of developing severe hearing problems, make sure to reduce the noise as much as you can. While these harmful effects are not acute, they are chronically developed over time. If you test the noise during the work on the anvil, you will find out that it often produces noise above 85 decibels, which is considered a harmful level of noise. Sometimes, it is the combination of the two. Wrapping Chains Around the Neck of the AnvilĪs we said earlier, blacksmiths develop hearing problems primarily by the loud ringing noise of the anvil and by not wearing ear protection.
