[TheForge] Air Hammer Anvil ?

[Madmike]

Fortunatly my mails didn't fall in an e-worm's hole, erk...
But all the ' like in I'm, were transformed in '=92', problems with the
'european encoding of rough text', i've disabled the option and now it seems
to work fine ! But I still don't hnow if it was only when receiving my own
mails or if you were all receiving it like me with 'random punctuation'...
Well as it works now...
Ok, so this morning (it's twenty 8:00 AM) I'll give a phone call to the guy
who's got the forklift counterweight to be sure he still has it, next I'll
call a friend who makes flour, he's got an enormous balance (i'm not sure of
the name of that stuff to calculate the weight of things)to weight his
trucks full of flour so I will know the weight of the 'anvil' and will be
able to calculate the weight of the ram. If the block is too light I've seen
he's got a second forklift out of use but the counterweight is still on the
vehicle and it would be much more tricky to pick it up but as I plan to use
at least a 135lbs ram and as my shop is under a 'dry wall vault' (I'll try
to explain if my translation is bad) weighting at least 30Tons, I really
need an oversized anvil to dampen the vibrations (not those Good Vibrations
the Beach Boys loved, those terrible vibrations that make the bridge break
off when the soldiers walk to the step). I plan to put 3x 1inch thick rubber
pad made for the walls of 'lashing out' horses' boxes, and hope it will
suffice...
I've got a 4 inches thick tool steel plate (a foot wide, square) from a
'stone crusher' tooth which will top the anvil and support the bottom 'bolt
on' bottom die, and a slightly modified 'Kinyon style/Abana style' air
scheme (oh, thanks a lot to Phil Rosche who helped me a lot to understand
the system, and who told me about you here @TheForge), I will post the air
scheme if it works as I hope, but will not earlier as I don't want to change
anything on it now and can't spend more time thinking to it...
Voilà, I needed to talk this morning...
Will tell you more when more to tell, if you've got ideas, advices, warnings
or questions or even corrections to improve my English, I will be happy to
read you all.
Friendly Madmike.
