Maybe it is incorrectly spelled? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2010-03-09 08:56:25 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Reference for "heel of anvil": The common blacksmith's anvil is made of either forged or cast steel, tool steel, or wrought iron (cast iron anvils are generally shunned, as they are too brittle for repeated use, and do not return the energy of a hammer blow like steel). Historically, some anvils have been made with a smooth top working face of hardened steel welded to a cast iron or wrought iron body, though this manufacturing method is no longer in use. It has at one end a projecting conical bick (beak, horn) used for hammering curved work pieces. The other end is typically called the heel. Occasionally the other end is also provided with a bick, partly rectangular in section.

Vid bearbetning i kallt tillstånd får man bättre precision. När man gör bearbetningen i varmt tillstånd krävs det istället mindre krafter.
