| 60 pound Appalachian "Rusty" Power Hammer |
| I have had more than a few people ask me about this alternative to high priced power hammers and this is what I decided to do. Of course after I built it I found a 50 pound Little Giant for $600, but for ease of repair this can't be beat. It works and I am very pleased with it. The credit for this invention belongs to Jerry Allen, a member of the Appalachian Blacksmiths Association and all around great guy. For more info try these links www.appaltree.net/rusty/association/john_martin.htm and www.appaltree.net RONIN Dan Gentile of Switzerland has done an outstanding job on his hammer "Krusty". I highly recommend those interested in building a hammer take a look at his links http://www.roninknives.com http://www.roninknives.com/krusty/ |
