Does someone manufacture these or are they being built by a class / smithing group? I tried going to tirehammer.com but they only have a place holder page up.

Larry-Clay Spencer conducts the workshops where the hammers are built. Usually arranged by one or another ABANA affiliate. There is usually a weekend or a day of prep work then the workshop is a weekend. Everyone who pays to do the workshop goes home with a hammer, drawn by lot after they are all done. The shop owner/host gets one for hosting and Clay keeps one for running the weekend. Clay brings jigs and fixtures to standardize parts and speed things up.

He used to do the same type of workshops for treadle hammers but that has been taken over by Bob Alexander.

You can contact Clay to find a workshop near you or try to generate interest in having one with your local affiliate. Tell him I said Hi!
