Wanting a Treadle Hammer


Recommended Posts

Hi I've had one of these hammers for about four years am very pleased with it. Very smoth action the head runs up & down in roller bearings. The only prob. I had is the way the top die is held in place with a bolt it can mess up the threads. The way I resolved that was to bore in about 1/4" deep into the die shank same size dia. as bolt then remove about 3/8" of the threads from bolt no more prob. I do have the air assist power power pack & it really came in handy when I was fullering some 1/2" x 2" in a die for a cap rail it was 8' long & I had a problem holding it & reaching the foot treadel. wana be
