Elemental Metal Creations Posted May 7, 2012 Author Share Posted May 7, 2012 Made it home from the conference. Brought home a 40lb swedge block, a 3.75 lb rounding hammer I made in a class given by Nathen Robertson, and a few other things. I will post some pic's after the wife gets them off her camera. Had a lot of fun and learned a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOblacksmith0530 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Well it was great! For those of you who missed it Phil held court in power hammer row until 2 am Friday morning. There were great deomonstrations going during the day and a good time after hours in power hammer row. We had 3 Little Giants running 2 25's and a 50 that hit like thunder but was super controllable. The star of the show was the gas engine powered 25. There was combined had and power hammer forging and a cala(sp) lilly forged under the hammer by Phil. I think we are plannign on the same next year so come and play, oh yeah we had good food too with some stellar beans and grilled meat.

781 Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 BAM is always a great time. Cant say I had better beans anywhere. Learned a few tricks from the two main demonstrators I watched plus picked up a couple more tips from Phil after hours. Saw Phil do a few things under the hammer that most would have not thought possible (upsetting and punching) Quite a few things went way too cheap at the auction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
