[TheForge] air hammer

[Jerry]

         My hammer is rather quiet, the neighbors don't feel it. The sand 
box is the best method for me. Plus it doesn't shake the house, so momma 
doesn't complain when shes home. Plus now that she is 3 months along, she 
is grumpy and doing strange things, so I am trying not to get my head bit off.
         Kim built my hammer and it works well, now if my hands would work 
that well I would use it more. The bed of sand was suggested to me by 
friend at CanIron.
