Here is a couple cool videos of a homebuilt powerhammer a guy made, I like the bit at the top of the ram guide for bending the tips of the firepokers!

I think you heard right on the temp. That hammer is similar to the one I built years ago and still pounding steel.

Cool videos! So how do you build the hammer? Any plans for one floating around?

Pretty cool video Sam.

Nice hammer, I'd like to make one of those myself, except everything in my garage has to be portable, and I don't think you'd get the best results with a power hammer on wheels. Though looking at the video it seems they have the hammer in an old truck box.
