September 23, 200817 yr I am finishing my gas forge and I will then go to making of power hammer I saw the video on you tube called : and I think it is quiet easy to make my one but I think that round ends are wrong rather a square ending ...:confused: I have everything except a important part: whell with a spring that rotates and makes hammer splash (from straight turning) Is it possible to make my one?:rolleyes:
September 23, 200817 yr If you go to anvilfire.com there is a lot of info on JYH's (junkyard hammers) there, lots of pic's also, which if your like me that is the most important thing, I can figure something out with a couple good pictures just as fast if not faster than I can with a detailed drawing, welder19
September 24, 200817 yr Here's a link to a set of plans to get you started on you power hammer. Yes combination dies will be more useful. Which are rounded on one and flat on the other.http://www.ferrumdg.com/ferrum/images/stories/PDF/krusty.pdf hope this helps Larry

September 25, 200817 yr I sure do around here, their only saving grace is that they all mostly sell to the place I buy scrap from. Cost me more but then I don't have to go hunt the stuff down ;)
September 25, 200817 yr Author I am on an island so they take it on land... I go in that scrap yard when my father and I go to sell copper from el. cables, the owners are very rude and inpolite you must almost attack them to sell you a piece of iron:(
