Medieval blacksmiths typically did not make anvils themselves; instead, they were often imported or purchased from specialized forges. However, if a blacksmith were to create an anvil, they would start with a large block of iron or steel, heating it in a forge and then hammering it into shape. Anvils were designed with a flat surface for striking, a horn for shaping metal, and a hardy hole for inserting tools. The process required considerable skill and experience to ensure durability and functionality.
The tradesmen who made the anvils peal are known as blacksmiths. Blacksmiths are skilled metalworkers who specialize in forging and shaping metal objects, including anvils. They use a combination of heat, hammering, and other tools to manipulate the metal into the desired shape and form. The ringing sound produced when striking an anvil with a hammer is often associated with the traditional image of a blacksmith at work.
Blacksmiths and metalworkers use an anvil to shape and manipulate metal by hammering it into various shapes. Anvils are also used by jewelers, farriers, and anyone performing metalwork or forging tasks.
Anvils are used by blacksmiths. They are basically small tables/stands for smashing a hammer on, while working with the metal. Without anvils, you would need to use a table made of iron.

The list includes medieval shops such as blacksmiths, apothecaries, and tailors.
Metal workers were called blacksmiths in the medieval times. They made a lot of swords and daggers, shields, and some other stuff too. I don't think they could've did something for fun then. Blacksmiths needed to get money for their families, money was hard to get in the medieval times unless you are a member of the royal family or a noble. Even if blacksmiths could make something for fun, they would probably make cool tools for themselves or a toy for their children.
