Randy,
would you give a detailed description of your drawing dies, please. I
recently returned from a Clay Spencer workshop on making treadle hammer
tools at the Alabama Forge Council Pavilion at Tannehill State Park outside
Birmingham (a fantastic facility) and we came home with 29 or so tools each.
We made 3 sets of fullers that consist of different size sections of coil
spring that mount top and bottom on the hammer, is that what you mean by
drawing dies?
The workshop was fantastic and I'm just beginning to try out the tools. I
also found that I'm gonna have to buy a Grizzly knife maker's grinder.
