Hello. i don't comment offend. but when I do ... I have something to say. it is sad that you are getting negative comments. I've built several hammers over the years. I've been a Smith for over 40yrs. your hammer looks great! i guess these guys that are basing your price on what scrap prices are. that's just showing thers ignorance. they've never heard of overhead. the price of fabricating a product and trying to make a honest living. id be proud to have one in my shop. PawPaw
Thank you sir. My stepfather and I had a great time designing and building it. It sold very quickly. Unfortunately some family issues have put our business on hold. Be glad to answer any questions you have.
Ok. I like what I see. I like that it doesn't take up so much space, it looks like it won't be difficult to maintain and/or fine tune and adjust as time goes on. It looks easy to put together. Does it need a air compressor? It doesn't look like it does. I think the price is very good. Where are you located to consider picking it up to transport instead of shipping.
18lb hammer and only 120bpm. Small hammers must strike fast to move any metal. A Litte Giant 25lb hammer strikes at approx. 350-375bpm. My Kerrihard 30lb hammer runs at 250bpm. Very light hammers for planishing sheet metal run at 850-1350bpm. There is a reason this hammer is not shown doing any actual work....
AndTheCorrectAnswerIs true fact! My 25 lb LG runs like an uzi! Honestly compared to heavier hammers, they’re a bit scary. Lots of stuff moving damn fast.
We went with a 3/4 HP. You might get away with 1/2 HP though. The gear reduction of 15:1, and the leaf spring isolates the motor very well from over torque. For the price difference, I would go with 3/4" HP. Longevity will not be in question that way.
Now that I think of it, we started with a 15:1 but it was to slow and did not compress the spring enough. We switched to a 10:1, and got the result seen in the video. 3/4" HP??? LOL!!!
Let's see it moving material. Let's see someone forging with it.
looks kinda like a treadle hammer but motorized. Great concept.
I've always wanted to use my everlast welder to make a power hammer. That design of yours looks really good.
That's a nice looking hammer. I'd like to see how well it moves metal.

Oldschoolpawpaw Boatright but show moving metal
looks great! Hope your family stuff is working itself out for the positive!
Great machine. 18 lbs you mean that hammer will generate 18 lbs force on the Mattel???
Do you still have this hammer, I know you don't have the shop anymore but it would be cool to see it hit some steel
love it, going to make one.
How do I get the plans for your power hammer
Good evening friend, do you have the project?
Ok. I like what I see. I like that it doesn't take up so much space, it looks like it won't be difficult to maintain and/or fine tune and adjust as time goes on. It looks easy to put together. Does it need a air compressor? It doesn't look like it does. I think the price is very good. Where are you located to consider picking it up to transport instead of shipping.
Any update on this or just making the plans available?
Do you sell plans for this hammer? Thanxs
Hi,

I live in germany and i´m not sure if you ship to germany?
Thank you
Thomas
Great little unit! Did you all ever get plans together for this?
Sorry sir, we have not.
Very Good!.

Are you still selling these hammers?
Do you sell these lil thumpers
Wow,
What size motor does it operate off of?

do you have plans for this ? what type of 90 degree angle unit do you have attached to the motor ?
where did you get your hammer dies from ?
james mcconoghy it is a 10:1 90* gear reducer. We fabricated the dies ourselves.
How much is it?
👍
easy for me to make this because I am experience welder and cnc ...
Good..good.
Love it!
Nothing like dry smashing your dies and ruining them. At least use a wood block or something so you don’t destroy it.
아주멋집니다.
Mantap 👍
Snake oil!
Affordable my ass
