I built the inline treadle hammer from plans by Clay Spencer. I have a picture of it here. At the time, I didn't have room for the treadle hammer and rolling mill, so I no longer have the treadle hammer. The main modification that I made, was instead of welding the tube for the pivot of the treadle to the front of the upright column, I drilled holes through the column instead. Obviously I had to make the treadle a bit longer, but not bit problem there.
I used 6" diameter round for the anvil, and a lead filled tube for the hammer.
