EWCTool Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I go to the Chautauqua County Antique Tractor and Equipment Association every year to demonstrate in their blacksmith shop. They are holding this hammer for someone and in the meantime I get to use it make different items for the people who come to the show. This hammer will accumulate a crowd very quickly when it starts moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EWCTool Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 These are easier to see. The hammer was built around the 1940s. The story is in the picture below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hammer Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Looks like the original tire hammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'd guess somewhere in the 1930's as that construction gives me that vibe... Can anyone date that wheel? That would provide the "not earlier than" date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will. K. Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Neat! Any chance of getting a video of it in action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
