The Peen-O-Matic 5000

[JTknives]

Since I have had a lot if requests to show off my surface peening machine I figured a short video would work. I took 2 videos but the second one will make you sick to watch as the vibration is bad lol. It’s just a old sewing machine that I converted to be a tiny power hammer so to speak. I am currently designing one to be built from scratch that will have more adjustability. This bad boy has done thousands and thousands of blades with no issues so it’s hard to place fault with it. If there is more interest in this I can post a “how to make one” directions.

As handy and efficient as that is, I don't envy you having to straighten a whole stack of blades...

CRK uses a pneumatic gun for theirs.

This one is fun to watch, looks like it works well.

Very cool. I have loved my carbide tipped hammer for straightening. It's like magic!

What happens if the peens are ground off?

It stays straight.
