So I made a Bichorn...

During a recent and ongoing armoring project, I suddenly (with great surprise and much forehead slapping) discovered a maxim.
To whit: a bowl can never be deeper than your longest stake.
Or rather, it CAN! But it can never be worked upon at a greater depth than your longest stake.
Or rather, it CAN! ...but only by straddling it around your stake-holder (anvil) until the level of accompanying frustration exceeds your capacity for patient perseverance.
All these I discovered. That part kinda sucked.
So, having some experience with Making Anvils already, I felt obliged to manufacture a solution.
tl/dr: check out the cool project.
Period solutions are the best solutions, but my poor tool room is turning more into a medieval armoury every day.
...and I like it.
