There's lots of it out there. I bet you've driven over some of it sometime in your travels. Just bring along a "gas axe" for cutting to proper length. :)
Seriously though. You might be able to get some from the maintenance department of the railroad. Other places where you might find some is a railroad tourist line or abandoned rail line.

Thanks for all the replies. Glad you like it.
Brass_Machine, let your wife go for it, mate. Pounding your will into a lump of red-hot iron is the best stress reliever there is. It's the reason most smiths are such calm, placid people. :thumbup:

one query - you've implied you're not (always) working at the fine-scale end of things - how "micro" an anvil will you be annealing with this burner ? :scratch:

Not saying. ::)
But here's a clue. This is the hammer I'll be using........
