October 17, 200718 yr Hello Guys ! There was an hammer-in last week-end in France, on a dealer table I could see this set of stamps ..... I know is for marking metal with hammer or power-hammer, but I have no idea of a finish object made with this tool, have you any examples???? thanks......
October 17, 200718 yr it appears to be some kind of a punch set, the tongs are the tool holders. Just my guess.
October 17, 200718 yr Looks like a chasing and repouse set to me, unless those are much bigger than the picture lends me to believe, in which case what Mike said is likely correct.
October 17, 200718 yr Those look a lot like some of the tools Hofi showed us one time, for use under the power hammer. I guess it is all about scale, but it looks to me like several fuller chisels, several round punches, and several round fullers. I really like the self locking tongs, and have been thinking of trying to make some. I scored a small pile of 4ish inch long 4340 in 5/8" round stock so a little too short to make a regular hand tool out of, but I could make a nice set of tongs to engage a set shoulder similar to what you're showing us and it'd probably work great. Fabien, give us an idea about the size of those pieces.
October 18, 200718 yr Author hello ! for give you an idea of size tool, this stamp is near 1inch large...... no easy to use repousse tool under power-hammer.... if you find a picture work made with similar tool, I'm interested:rolleyes: bye!

October 18, 200718 yr Author Skunkriv, I have see the hofi's dvd and all this elements was made only with power-hammer, with special dies...... are this tools only for making surface effect???? :confused::confused::confused:
