That hits hard enough for pattern welded billets. Great build!

Dan, I don't know if I ever told you how impressed I am by the whole setup you have made for yourself. Quite the accomplishment. Looking forward to many years of you producing swords with that stuff.

Really cool Dan, building my own power hammer at the moment, more of a helve type with leaf spring as the fulcrum. Its high with gas cylinders as hammer and sleeve, roller blade wheels as guides! Will send you short video of it in operation if email address is in description, have not looked yet! Happy forging mate, have fun!

WOW! Very impressed! Just want to thank you for taking the time to do all of the hard work in putting up these videos. You took time to show and explain everything in an easy to understand manner. Please continue to show us what you are doing. My Grandmother was full Japanese. I have always had the desire to build one of these hammers. I have tried to catch glimpses of Murray Carters hammer. I can now build my own thanks to your help.Be Blessed! Seek Truth! Come Winter Come! Hawk.~ Hawk Knives~

Hi Dan, I'm interested in how you went about getting the custom spring made. What requirements did you have, and what was the ordering process like? The hammer is really nice, your forum posts are such a great resource for this kind of build.

It looks to me like the edges of the hammer might leave "smiles" in your work piece if you don't hold it just so. Do you anticipate any problem with that? Looks like quite a project. I especially like the notion of being able to work sitting down. I have disk damage and stenosis which make working on my feet problematic. Great job, can't wait to see more!

First thing: this is brilliant! This is exactly the sort of hammer I am trying to build. Question: how do you keep your anvil from being hammered into the ground? it is on a separate foundation? Also, those pillow blocks you are using, are they special impact resistant? or just normal bearing blocks?
