I Forge Iron

Making hammers with a small hydraulic press?

Recommended Posts

 I am beginning the build of a TA Toler style 20 ton mini hydraulic forging press. One of my specific goals for this process is to use it to forge a larger rounding hammer for myself. I don't often have a striker available so I'm hoping this  Press will help.  Anyone else out there use one of these small presses in hammer making? If so any advice pictures or other information would be appreciated. I plan on making dies that are mirror images of my top tools used in hammer making. The attached picture is not my press but one I found on the Internet and similar to what I'm planning.
