some love to fish for BASS...

she is a wee LASS...

if there were sparks coming off of it,you burnt it.

i priced a VFD to run the 4kw 3 phase motor for my Anyang 88lber and it was $441 Canadian,plus probably 2hr for installation around $130.i thought it was reasonable.

hi Cal-k.i am not sure about Ontario,but in B.C. i don't believe there is.i am sure anyone can go to a House of Knives and buy anything they want,no permit required.

Wulfgar,I think you got a good deal from the sounds of it.Hey Sabre,I just felt sorry for you,LOL.Happy hammering.

that is quite a collection,great pics,thanks alot.

i am right handed and have the horn on the right as well.

Thanks John for the offer,I am sure to have some questions seeing they are my first machines.When my customer and I opened the crates we were impressed,they seem to be finished off nicely.Even though the C41-15 is smaller at approx. 600lbs just looking at it you can tell it is metal mover.John,by the time I get the C41-40 set up I will have a piece of 3in. ready to try.

i got the machines delivered on thursday,one is going to a new home,and the 40kg hammer is in my carport waiting for a concrete base to appear in the shop.i am hoping to be able to have everything set up and wired in before Christmas. trattoclip,i will definitely take your advice.i am going to get my Dad(machinest/millwright)to give me a hand also my buddy is a retired professor of mechanical engineering and he is as excited about the hammer as i am.

my Anyang hammers arrived finally and cleared customs.they should be delivered within the next few days.i can hardly wait to get one mounted and ready to use.

mostly coal,some propane.

i was given an anvil that had been in a garden for 20 yrs.i was happy the lady had painted it.my new vaughan came painted a real nice blue.

thanks for the post Jan,i sure enjoyed the photos.

sore...from working too hard

i usually buy a ton at a time and reorder when i am down to a couple of hundred pounds.i always have a 60lb bottle of propane kicking around as well.

kovacija,1 1/2 in. is approximately 37cm.,i think it is 2.54cm. to an inch.

pail...as in bucket
