Sigh. I'm having... discussions with my wife about the idea of  
spending the time and money on building a treadle hammer instead of  
getting a power hammer at the moment. My business is just gaining  
momentum, and I just got a multi-thousand dollar job creating a large  
hammered window display and a couple railings for a yarn shop, so I  
have to have mechanical assistance to make it cost effective. What are  
some opinions out there? Is it worth building a treadle hammer, or do  
you think I should just jump to the power hammer, since I know I'm  
going to need one eventually (i.e. within a year or so).

Also, I'm located in Portland, Oregon, so if there are any hammers for  
sale nearby, I'd love to hear about them. I can't really afford the  
trip to Pittsburgh for that $3k one.

Thanks,
Mark
