Hi Sam, I think Roger Barnard down in Plymouth had one for a while, give him a ring. How are you keeping? I think I met you that weekend on the Globe gates, years ago.

All I can tell you is that is one of the prettiest power hammers I have seen. I can't tell you why but I really like the looks of this thing! I wish it were in the states...

But I got curious and here is what I found:

They may be able to give you some info.

Please share anything you find. I am really curious.

There are a few of these about, I have used one and would think there best for production work and not general smithing as no full force single blows.

Hi David, Yes that was me. The bank forced me to 'downsize' not long after! Say Hi to anyone who knows me... I've been back at it for a couple of years.
I'm not thinking of buying this, I'm not keen on spring hammers; like Primetechsmith I just thought it was pretty.

Was looking at industrial surplus and found one here. Think it's in Chicago.

That's how I found this thread.
