Proper working Anvil Height

This is logical, but it leaves out the thickness of the work and/or the
height of any anvil inserts. I have used anvils a lot, and I don't think
it's all that critical. A few inches one way or the other probably make
little difference. If it did, carpenters wouldn't be able to drive nails
where and how they do.
