E.F, I don't have a lathe or a mill but I do have a friend with the know-how & access to the rt machine tools. Kroil is great stuff! There's already been a liberal application & I think this is where I'll try out a cpl of Kano-labs other products, like the rust remover.

Hi all, this is my first post & my first power hammer rebuild. I want to dive Rt in and bring this machine up to front line spec. I ordered the papers on it from Cortland Machine & Tool today so I'll be able to get a better picture on what is needed part wise. It needs a halve, ram guides & some new rubber bumpers, past that it seems like its all there. I'm concerned about the repairs in the pitman arm / eccentric area, what do you think? Also needs bushings at the top of the pitman arm. Let me know what you folks think.

The ram, anvil & sow block are there, just not in the pictures. What I know to be missing- the helve, ram guides & a few bolts, the rubber bumpers are there but pretty beatsplit. I know there are better candidates but this one is at hand & it came to me at scrap value. I'd like to plan out the rebuild, do all the figuring & get or make the needed parts so everything is ready to go, then start turning wrenches & scraping paint. I'd hate to take it to the scrap yard.
