[TheForge] air hammer

[Walter Mullett]

I don't understand.  Is it that you can't pour because you think you would
have to drive piles?  If that's it then what is supporting the hammer now?
If your floor supports it then a new footing isolated from the floor should
work.

Now that I have the hammer working right,I find that I need to damp the
vibration from it.
1, I can't cut a hole in the floor and pour a couple of yards of concrete in
it to solve the problem.
2,soil conditions indicate that I'd have to drive pile to bed rock.
3, I haven't figured how to put half of the base into another dimension to
have the havoc go there. :-))
         So here is what I plan to do. put a wood base on 3" of sand and
1/2" conveyer belting directly under the hammer. Do we have any other ideas
floating around out there that might help?
