Last Fri., Sat. and Sun we built 30 of Clay Spencer's inline Treadle =
Hammers
in Jeff Wilson's shop in Birmingham and it was an impressive experience.  =
We
worked hard, learned a lot, and came home with beautiful hammers.  Now I
need to get some suggestions on the best treadle hammer reference book or
video for learning to use it and build tools for it.

Searching the web I come up with, Treadle Hammer Magic with Clay Spencer, =
a
video from ABANA, but I'm not a member and can't buy it.  Can anyone tell =
me
how to get a copy of this and perhaps suggest other good reference =
material
to help me learn to use this magnificent hammer.

Thanks,  Jeff Valentine
