Broad River Forge Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Here is the result of 2 years imagination and a year building. It far exceeds my expectations and Im extremely happy with the machine. I will make more vids of what it can do. It expands the capabilities of a mechanical hammer and addresses the major issue I did not like about mechanicals... Height adjustments I did not enjoy doing. The configuration allows for maximum power regardless of thickness and closes the gap between a self contained and a mechanical. enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Pretty slick build. Couldn't hear the hammer working over the music and I like to hear machinery speak. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, i have no idea how to rotate the video now that its done. I filmed it with my camera sideways.... IMG_0667.MOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
