[TheForge] air hammer-2

[kim george]

First the hammer is modified Kenyon that I cobbled together :-)).  The 
hammer is approximately 60# the anvil is 30" of 5" shafting. The whole 
thing weighs about 800#. The reason I don't want to cut the floor is that 
it was built over an old chicken coop floor and foundation, back filled 
with field stone.
         The problem is that the back foundation is sinking and that is 15' 
from the hammer. I'm trying to slow the process down so that in 30 years 
when I quit I haven't had to rebuild the shop 3or4 times. We have definite 
water problems, a spring 10' off the back corner.
         Now if I win the lottery the subject will be moot. Because I'll be 
building a bigger shop on a different piece of ground with room for more 
toys.;-))
