Hi-
I am looking to the ABS members for recommendations of D-I-Y power hammer plans. Thank you.

Clay Spencer offers plans for a tire hammer power hammers. It is a 50lb hammer. His plans are $30, I have seen these hammers in use and they are not to bad.
You can E-mail him at [email protected] Check out some of the blacksmith club web sights and you might can find a picture of one.

Anthony- Thank you for your reply and for the information on the Spencer hammer and area blacksmithing clubs! Just to be clear - when you say not too bad, are you also saying the Spencer-design can be pretty good?

Yes, our blacksmithing club, The Saltfork Craftsmen Artist Blacksmith Association, did a club build to cut down on the cost. I think they built 15 or so. Each member that wanted one
paid there share, and all helped each other. What one could not do someone else could. Welding for example. Everyone likes there hammer very well. But remember the hammer is only as good as you
can fabricate.
