The file header has claimed this model "comes to ~0.75 m with a real anvil
stump" for as long as it has existed, while shipping a 0.34 m anvil on its
own, lying on the floor. An anvil is bedded into the end grain of a log:
the block kills the ring, and it puts the face at the smith's knuckle. The
stump is its own part, so anyone wanting the bare anvil for their own bench
hides `parts.stump` -- the same arrangement the bell's frame uses.
Two things went wrong on the way in, and the second corrects the first.
Passing `woodTint('oak', ...)` and `woodTint('oakEnd', ...)` as two
arguments of one call hands the callee the same object twice: the tinter
returns one Color and mutates it, which its own docstring warns about. The
block was painted end-grain on every face. That is a real bug and the fix
stands -- but it was not why the stump looked wrong, and the measurement is
what said so. Against the bench and the table on the same oak slot our
stump is LESS saturated, not more (0.35 against 0.45 and 0.49), so the
colour handling was never anomalous.
The actual gap was in one axis: value 0.54 against the reference's 0.28. A
chopping block is old, split and weathered nearly black, which is a
genuinely darker piece of wood than fresh oak, not a rendering artefact.
Sweeping the lift and measuring lands at hue 30 / saturation 0.28 / value
0.34, against 31 / 0.29 / 0.28.
The block is also wider than first drawn. The anvil overhung it, and a
block the anvil overhangs looks like it would go over the first time
anyone swung at it.
