Have a great Holliday Forge on and make beautiful things Jim Jim I Built that in 2006 The whole back of the hammer is an air tank ( you can see three 1 inch rods in the side that go all the way thru to help to keep the air pressure from bulging them out ) That way I had the air compressor feeding the hammer tank so the air only had to travel about 12 inches to the cylinder which helped on the drag on the compressor ( I ran it on a 5 hp compressor ) The finish is STEEL - IT --- 316 stainless steel two part epoxy paint. I don't have it anymore as someone wanted it way more than I did ( ive got the plans and drawings around somewhere but it was built mostly shooting from the hip Mike
yesteryearforge Members December 18, 201510 yr Author stats Forging Carver Not too hard to build That was 9 years ago so the costing would be pretty irrelevant now. The side walls are 3/8 plate and the rest was build mostly from drops and such. The air valve configuration was from some old ABANA plans.
