1913 50# LG running six days per week.

 

One of my latest 22" cymbals.  The LG takes a lot of the grunt work out of it.

7 votes for "other"?  Home made air?

 

 

Yep, that was how I voted.  Kinyon style home made.

 

I noticed this too. Have to wonder if the results would be different if it was simply "Homemade" There are many types of homemade hammers than tire hammers. My vote wouldn't have change anything as mine IS a tire hammer. Just sayin' :D

Wherare the Massey s???? :angry:  :(  :huh:

Wherare the Massey s???? :angry:  :(  :huh: 

I voted for mine as a Modern Self Contained.

[beslagsmed]

I voted "other" because my homemade one is not a tire type, its mechanical.

[iron woodrow]

I voted for mine as a Modern Self Contained.

where do you draw the "modern line"? masseys made surely some of the first self contained hammers? which should mean there is a "pioneer self contained" section :p

[johnnie]

It was delivered new to the Steel company of Canada in 1960 it's 53 years old   So if I say antique some of the antiques on here here might have an issue with that :rolleyes:

[Don Hanson]

I voted modern mechanical, cause one of the 100 pounders is New and they don't seem like antiques to me.

 

But the old 25 IS an antique! :D

[Stormcrow]

100 lb. homebrewed guided-helve "Rusty" type.  I debated on whether to count it as "other", but went with tire hammer since it has a tire clutch.

 

I named her Gunnhilda (battle-maiden).  :)
