todoned Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Discovered a guy down the road has a Kerrihard 30 pound power hammer for sale, he mentioned $2000 but I don't know how firm that is. I took a picture. I have no interest in this sale, but will forward his phone number to you via private message. Location is Albuquerque, New Mexico. I know the hammer needs a new motor, otherwise I don't know its condition -- as is obvious from the picture, it is stored in a shed, and non-operational. I don't think the owner ever had it working. -Tod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will. K. Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I could be wrong but to me it looks like that hammer has been cobbled together. shop made parts and maybe parts from another hammer? looks drastically different than the 30lber I picked up last fall and the pictures I've seen of other 30lb kerrihards. Particularily in the ram/guide/spring area. I suppose it could be a older/newer model than I've seen but it just looks off to me. Do you have a picture from the front of the hammer?

ThomasPowers Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'd suggest posting this on the SWABA web page. Of course I used to be president of SWABA---South West Artist Blacksmith Association the ABANA affiliate for NM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todoned Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 Hi Thomas, It has been on the Swaba page for a few weeks now! As far as it being cobbled together -- I have no idea, could be... the dies certainly are out of alignment. I don't have any other pictures, the hammer needs pulled out of where it is -- perhaps some interest will motivate the seller to get better pictures, etc!
