sfDuck Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I was trying to make a graceful curve in a piece of tapered pipe using a flat hammer and kept coming out flat. I have a bottom fuller that is round, was wondering if the problem is just changing to a round face hammer or do I need to make a different bottom tool to.

Ten Hammers Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Duck, what kind of tapered pipe you got ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike-hr Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Could you oval the pipe on the X-axis, so when you curve it on the Y-axis, it magically comes out round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Salvati Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I would say a stake tool to fit inside the tapered pipe, that can handle hammering on the outside to curve it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrforge Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 peen it. your flat hammer covers too much area with one stirke. remember the basic hammer blows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
