forged die

This is a forged die I made at a 3 day power hammer class at Bob Bergmans Shop - Steve Parker showed a lot things that can be done with flat dies on a power hammer with tooling. I forged the die from a 5-1/2 inch long x 2-3/8 inch round bar of 1045 steel. The die ended up being about a 2-7/8 cube. The hammer I used was a 3B Nazel. this was the first time working with a Nazel this size..... just plain fun. - JK - 10-27-07
