I would arrange it so the horn is pointed toward the truck. Better NOT to bump into the point of the horn while walking around your rig.
Yea, you would, but I'm left handed, so would have to put my forge on the other side, which when I get another van I might do. Right not I'm getting the thing to work right and give good support. I did a couple horses on it today, not too bad. Now it's in two pieces. The lighter pipe slides into the darker one. I have to remove the anvil and set it on the plate between where it is now and the van. What I want to end up with is a one piece slide in. Attached is a pic how is slides in now, as you say the point is in. View attachment 5064 View attachment 5064
Pick up a swing up trailer jack to put on the end. Be a little easier to set up and have some adjustability to it too. I'm planning to make a slide out like that, but with angle iron and rollers. ETA: I'm a lefty also. I wouldn't point the bick at the truck regardless. If you ever plan to build draft shoes your stand will get in the way.
