Swanstrom® - Anvil/Mandrel - Multi-Purpose Forming (NR1720)
The Swanstrom® multi-purpose anvil provides an ideal work surface for small-scale forming tasks. It features an interchangeable flat top and versatile mandrels designed to accommodate a variety of shaping needs. Perfect for shaping rings, slim bracelets, and curved components for drops or dangles, this anvil includes two stepped and two tapered mandrel shapes. Mandrels attach securely with a screw, tightened from the opposite end using an Allen wrench. Compact and portable, it’s excellent for trade shows, demonstrations, or use in a shop or classroom. For permanent placement, the anvil can be mounted to a bench using the pre-drilled holes in its base. Two Allen wrenches and mounting bolts are included. Crafted from hardened tool steel, the flat top plate and mandrels ensure long-lasting durability. Patent pending. For added versatility, two optional adapters (sold separately) are available:
- Universal Adapter: Holds a variety of tools and holders (such as those for Fretz stakes) that require one- or two-bolt attachments. Ideal for use with Fretz forming tools and stake holders. Tools that typically require a holder will still need one—simply secure the holder in the universal adapter before inserting the tool.
- Small-Tool Adapter: Accommodates small convertible forming tools like Bonny Doon ring-forming split-die pairs. Secure the adapter in the anvil, then attach your chosen tool.
