Rhettbarnhart Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I wanted a different slag hammer from all the Lincoln hammers so I made one from coil spring,here it is. Btw I got done forging and found the spring had a surface crack,I went ahead and finished and I will hope it doesn't spread.

VaughnT Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 That's pretty awesome! I love the basket hilt. The whole thing shows your skills and I don't doubt that the other welders will be very jealous. Be careful that it doesn't grow legs when your back's turned! As for the crack, I wouldn't worry about it. This isn't a hammer for heaving pounding so it should last a few lifetimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Ivan Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Beautiful slag hammer. As Vaughn said, don't worry too much about the crack. The more time you spend welding, the less time you will find that hammer in your hands. Again, as Vaughn stated...DON'T LET IT GROW LEGS!!! Nice work. -Crazy Ivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
