I heated the hammer up to bright orange in the coal forge, then i hit it with my 4 lb. cross pein twice and there was a big crack right down the middle of the hammer head of the ball pein. Then, after i heated it up again, i hit the pein of the hammer and it just broke off.

All the smoke from a coal forge is one reason i decided to use a gas forge. And, I do all my hammering and grinding in my garage, so if your outside it doesnt sound much louder than my dad's truck. But my neighbors only have about 15-25 feet away from my house, and they dont ever complain about my working.
