I believe that add has been there many years...I seem to recall a few years back I spoke to the guy who bought that one. Any others out there? Ric

Actually my 3B Nazel took three blows to do that Grant..had to run the test... Grant can I ask a favor? What does your press do to 8" of 1.5" round mild steel in one heat? Simply downward pressure with no interest in controlling the spread..all natural. My 3B Nazel can flatten it to about 1/4" plate 4" wide in the center in 40 blows .... so about 10-12 seconds from a high heat. I do not have access to a friction press, but would not mind one if it can do the work....to know that I need some tests run to see how large a press I should be looking for. Ric

If you are interested in a larger "H" style fly press I have one for sale. http://www.doorcountyforgeworks.com/Videos.html bottom of the page. Simply do not need it any longer. Ric

Looks like a good tool you have there. I never used a hammer of the N series, but like my 3B very much. I recommend Mark Krause's booklet as well as any other Nazel info you can get. Thought I had a spare copy of the booklet, but can't find it now. Question: Does anyone know of a 5B Nazel for sale..I guess a 5N would work as well after seeing this hammer and the videos by Grant on youtube. I am casually looking. Ric
