Pictures of the completed hammer

Here are the pictures of the finished chasing and reppouse treadle hammer. I am very pleased with the hammer, it works like a charm, and I look forward to using it to create some fine pieces of metal work.



I also forged out some 2-inch solid square 4140 tool steel tonight. (4-inch long piece) I used the Kinyon air hammer for this task. I was just trying to get the steel down to a more manageable size for making some new tools.

Kind of a neat messed up photo.




I'm not really sure how to explain or what title to put over this next one, so I'll let your own imagination determine the point and purpose of this picture.

Your hammer is very nice! I think it's pretty great how it uses no electricity. Power outages aren't going to stop the blacksmith shop!

Just saw the hammer Saturday! Thanks for showing me around. Y'all have really revamped that barn.
