My setup works plenty well, but it's janky as all get out. The pulley arm and brake pad need to be re-done, though. You can see in the video that I have a bolt and nut in place of that lever on the sleve, so two wrenches and you're good. The brake pad, the original tightening assembly for the slip sleeve on the back, and tensioner pulley arm. It's complete, as far as the hammer itself is concerned, except for three things. I'm selling because I decided a pneumatic power hammer would fit my needs better.ġ50# Upright Strap Hammer. The adjustable hydraulic flow reducer valve that is installed is the make/model that coal ironworks has recommended to me and was installed according to coal ironworks directions.

And a adjustable hydraulic flow reducer valve is installed so you can adjust the speed of the ram/cylinder from anywhere between 0 inches per second to 4 inches per second, but will still have full power at any speed, and the adjustable hydraulic flow reducer valve can be easily removed to restore to the single speed of 4 inches per second as it was originally. Funny, the guy was told it had damage, told it was made in a different country and he hasn't updated the listing.typical ePray scumbag.Very lightly used coal ironworks upgraded 16+ ton hydraulic forging press for sale, less than 10 hours on it, comes with a set of H13 combination dies, a set of full width flat dies, a set of 4140 fuller/hammer trough dies, a stripper plate die for punching and a interchangeable socket die to interchange punches for punching hammers/axes/etc. If you look at my last picture you can still see the scallops from the weld bead in spots. I took some pictures of it the day of the auction to send to a friend. I guess some folks don't mind screwing other people for money. Yeah, and the closeup picture showed the least offensive section that was welded.not an accident.įurther, it was made in England, not in Germany like he says, so he's wrong about that as well. I told him that was evidence of major damage, and a repair, so why was it listed as being in excellent condition with no damage? His answer."I don't know much about anvils and thought they all had the tops welded in place."

He said, that's why I put a closeup of the face, so people could see the welding.

I even sent the guy a note and mentioned how I had seen that anvil in person at the auction and it had extensive welding done to it. Some chucklehead bought a damaged and repaired early Trenton at auction this past Sunday and immediately put it on eBay saying it was in excellent condition with no issues or faults.īoth edges had extensive chipping that was welded up and then hit with a grinder.ugh. not realizing they're going to be hard to work with and harder to get something cool and amazing made from them.

It doesn't matter if it's a beat to crap chipped out sway backed broken horned lump used to beat cold railroad track chunks into flat plates, those are magical anvils that will only go up in value while rusting n front of someone's suburban paradise, next to the rusty farm implements and other "yard art", or make them the mighty smithys of days of yore. Plus, they have what I call the "Harley" syndrome - Put the name Peter Wright or Hay Budden on it, because those are the names antique chasers and yard art condemners and pickers recognize, they command a premium. the others are those with more money than brains, or waiting for someone to send their child through college on their barn find. 2 groups - 1 are the "preppers" who think we're going back to the 1730's right away, as in the (fill in the name of any country here) are launching missiles as we speak. It's people afraid they don't get one, RIGHT NOW, they will all evaporate.
