"the Best Treadle Hammers in Production" is in no way dead! Sorry guys I have been having computer problems for the last couple of months. I can now be reached at trying_it@hotmail.com
As for the website presently being a little incomplete the reasoning is, because of this model's uniqueness, legal and binding patent rights are being applied for at this time.
A few facts about a BigFoot treadle hammer:
My 7-yr-old grand daughter easily flattens 6 soda cans at once, in one stomp, to a thickness of 1/8. A trial unit was sold and is used for fine copper repousse work. I myself prefer billet making and blacksmithing with my unit. One unit can do it all.
This is a foot-operated 165# hammer head with precise and consistent results. The harder you hit, the harder the force is multiplied and delivered. Furthermore, an optional air package is being designed now to replace the treadle mechanism if so desired. That will make it a fully functional air hammer. (note:This optional package will require a user supplied large capacity air source)
No advertisement hype:
I want you to stomp all the rest, then come here and step on the best.
An even bigger hammer is being designed that will be strictly dedicated to an on-board, fully contained, air supply and delivery system. This future unit's hammer should be in the 250# (or more) hammer range.
