Looking forward to seeing the pictures.  I note that you said "Kinyon style 
hammer".  Does that mean you deviated somewhat from Ron Kinyon's plans, or 
did you follow them according to the original plans?  I'm curious because I 
have most of the parts for making one myself.  Just need the pneumatic 
cylinder and the plumbing stiff, bit I've got the heavy stuff ready to go.
