Do you quench or cool the head of the spike before twisting? With my luck, I'll get the head too hot and end up rounding it off and just spinning the wrench on it.
Yeah, I like it too! You could also forge a little bend at the top of the hammer (shape it like a number 7), put the pivot point at the bend and tie a halyard to it....pull on the halyard to ring the bell. Think I'll make one too! Thanks for posting it.
