AndrewOC Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Hi All, Last Saturday I had the pleasure of picking up an ol' spring hammer; Did some research (digitised old newspapers online) to discover "Hands, Scott" were a blacksmithing/ engineering business in Arncliffe (Sydney, Australia) between at least 1912 and 1920. I have seen a couple of other 'Waratah' hammers online before, very similar but not exactly the same. Enjoy the pics, I'll be scouring this forum for spring guard, flywheel brake and die-block improvements; what a great resource it is!

ThomasPowers Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Looks like a stout one! What's the ram weight? Is a Waratah better than a Warrantee? remember to drain the tinnies before smashing them with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
