May 23, 201313 yr i'm interested in talking to anyone that owns and is running a niles bement in the 300 to 400lb range....
May 25, 201313 yr Now you can say you have run one too, Mac Martin! Whatcha want to know about the hammers Pete?
May 26, 201313 yr Author danger ... those machines you have pictured,have they been modified in anyway ???
May 26, 201313 yr I just bought an 800 lb. Niles Bement, I do not have it set yet. Hopefully in July I will have it hitting.
May 26, 201313 yr PM sent Pete, you may take a look at the steam hammer thread as well. Matt where did you get 800? 5 weeks and counting :D
May 27, 201313 yr Danger, without taking it out of the piston guide, I don't know the exact weight. But my calculations have it between 750 and 800. All of the catalogs that I have seen did not list a 700 or 750 model. I think we have the same exact model that was sold as an 800 lb. hammer. That catalog I posted in the steam hammer thread has the sizes. Not to say that they didn't make some other sizes not listed there. But I think we have what they sold as a 800
May 27, 201313 yr Thanks Matt, I sure would like to have a 800 :blink: maybe I do! You gonna post up any progress photos in the steam hammers thread?
