[TheForge] Little Giant

[Mark Novak]

I'm considering buying an old style Little Giant power hammer for  
$1650. It doesn't have a motor, but, according to the photos the  
seller sent, it looks pretty darn good. The part that hides the inner  
ram and link connections (I don't know the part name - it acts as a  
shield from the moving parts at the point above the striker) appears  
to have suffered a couple not-so-great repairs, but everything else  
looks intact, unbroken, and the seller swears by the fact that all of  
the parts move freely by hand... nothing is frozen shut.

Any thoughts on the price or product?
