Yo.  Here's some credit: Had a look at your power hammer tooling pics.
Now I'm even more keen than I was before (if that's possible :-) on
getting my big hammer usable.  Present dies are not very usefull for
forging but they'll be just right for tools like you show. Thanks.

And I wonder if my A&O-anvil-lapper has a future reincarnated as a
twister.  Might be a bit slow at ca. 600:1 reduction but worth a try.
