[TheForge] Air Hammer Workshop?

Wed Dec 4 10:29:01 2002

I agree with you 100% on figuring out how the #*&% thing worked.  I bought the ABANA plans about 5 years ago, and spent the first two trying to figure it out.  When I build mine, I asked Larry Zoeller, Ralph Sproul, and Dave Mudge A LOT of questions.  After figuring it out, the next hardest part was making the part that the slider goes up and down in.  It would certainly take a lot of pre-planning.
