dlpierson Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I've been drooling about this little hammer because of some recent threads here. Just went over to YouTube and found some pictures of it at work:Forging a leafForging a calla lilyForging a leafing hammer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spears Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I'm in line (and there probably is one!) to buy one of these in the fall. I've beat the internet to death on power hammer brands, prices, applications, etc etc. The Anyang 33 appears to be a winning product for the money.

Spears Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 The one thing I kind of like about the Anyang and Striker hammers is the cast iron construction. It seems like old technology, but some of the best industrial machinery in the world has been made with cast iron frames. Bridgeport milling machines are just one example. Alternative methods for manufacturing machines such as steel plate welded or bolted assemblies aren't always cheaper nor guarantee a stronger structural integrity. I think with the rising cost of USA life and products, the china cast iron hammers will live to sell for a while. Spears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
