LarryM Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 This are few pictures of my power hammer. The ram weight is about 45#. I've stolen ideas here and there on web. The tire clutch and drive works really well. The tire has a brake setup, so when let your foot off the treadle the hammer stops. This let's me hit one hard stroke at a time with hand held tools. I have two sets of dies one, flat one combination. The dies are 2 1/4" X 5". Lots of clamp on dies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormcrow Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 Nice! I'd like to see a close up shot of how you are holding the dies on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregDP Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Thanks for sharing. I like your hammer but even more so your yard. You seem like the kinda guy that keeps a lot of iron in the fire if you know what I mean. Makes me feel better about starting new projects while my workspace is cluttered. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
