[TheForge] Power hammer question.

Thu Jan 30 01:15:00 2003

External guides are an option but I'd like to keep the overall height as low
as possible.

As soon as I get the valving sketches inked and labeled I'll post them for
review.

I have experience with hydraulics and some pneumatics but this is new so I'm
counting on you guys to point out any mistakes.

If it ain't forged
it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
