Nazel 3b ingaging lever
NickBalz replied to NickBalz's topic in Power Hammers, Treadle Hammers, Olivers
Hello all , after talking to a few guys I've decided to lower price of this great hammer . I was thinking of starting it up but I don't want to damage this great peace of machinery , I've been told that a 3b is worth any where from 6,000.00 not running to 16,000.00 running tip top. So I've decided to do this 8,500.00 or partial trade posable . That being said I would be more than happy to take 6,000.00 at time of pickup and the remanding 2,500.00 at the time you set it up in your shop and see that it runs , if it needs more than just miner work at time of setup we will just say that 6,000.00 was a good price and leave it at that, good faith on my part honesty on yours would that be fair ? The flywheel turns freely the ram moves freely seems all levers/valves are working I've cleaned it up a bit and oiled it. Nick -
Hi names Nick and casting cu based alloys is my real job, we use graphit as a cover and only use charcoal if ox is high also when we hold in a bigger furnace we nitrogen I think been some time sence I cast strait cu . I work at a d.c plant/ we cool the bars we make with water. Good cover of graphit through the melting process should work or it does with a 30,000# furnace any way good luck , my dad always told me I could do anything I put my head to , I have found that to be true BUT sometimes I bite off more than I can chew .Nick

I have gotten my hands on a nazel 2b it is 2 peaces and weighs about 11000# ,in good shape it seams , although it has been out side for about 6months . And unfortunately I don't think I can afford to put it in my small shop due to cost. Would any of you be interested in it ? Comes with tooling and looks like new dies ? Thanks nick
