Little Giant Power Hammer Design Differences Video

While visiting Sid Suedmeier at his Little Giant Power Hammer shop in Nebraska City, NE he explained the differences between the Old and New style Little Giant Power Hammers and I thought that it would be helpful to share his comments on the ABS YouTube Channel. Sid's website is www.littlegianthammer.com

Brion,

Believe it or not I was standing behind Dan when he filmed this, giving him rabbit ears and Sid never flinched.

I will have to keep an eye on Dave the next time that I am filming for the ABS YouTube Channel!

I appreciate all that I learned that Saturday about the operation and maintenance of a Little Giant power hammer from Sid Suedmeier and Dave Sloan. Both Sid and Dave are very knowledgeable and willing to share their knowledge.

Enjoy your new hammer Dan. There is something about forging with a new old hammer like these. I guess I am nostalgic, but I do really like my hammer and would not trade it.
