[TheForge] Krause/Nazel type air hammer

Wed Dec 4 07:00:01 2002

I used this modification on the first hammer I built, but found that the little needle valve on the top port caused the hammer to act "all goofy" and even open it was restricing the flow.  As an experiment I took it off and I have just as much control (I can close a matchbox without crushing it) and it hits harder.
