In this video Chris and Ilya give an inside look at the power hammer that we have here at our blacksmith shop. We even show some restoration on a power hammer or two and some that are in the works being restored now. We cover how each hammer works and what makes each power hammer unique. Everything you need to know about mechanical hammers such as Little Giant Power Hammers and Bradley Helve and Strap hammers. Ilya also breaks down our self contained 165 kg Anyang hammer and gives a brief run down of how a hammer like that or Nazel or Beche would work and what makes them different from others hammers.
We will do more videos like this if you like it. We are getting several old new hammers in this upcoming year and hope to share them with you all when they live again!
Please consider supporting us by sharing this video to help spread the word!

Can you count how many times we said “particular”? We will select from the correct guesses and send you a prize pack!
In particular I have counted 13 "particularly"
My guess is 13!!
I also counted 13 as well in this particular video.
I counted you saying "particular" 9 times in this video.
13
The historical background of the water-driven trip hammers goes back to the roman era!
There is a site in France built on a steep hillside where there is evidence of forging AND flour production as the water descends to the valley floor, via a series of units, all driving off the same river.
This style is also still to be seen in rural china, not however for metal but for pounding sticky rice!
It's a community owned project.
Fascinating that the idea has been in use for roughly 2,000years!
I worked in production and never really got the chance to "play" with the big toys in the workshop.
Sometimes, I really wish I had.
Thanks for a great visit.
Thank you for giving a historical background of some of your hammers!
I can still hear Will's scream when the Fairbanks died. Rip.
Alec did say he may be attempting to repair the casting. It is possible to "stitch" castings back together.
not just me huh? lol
This video was designed to make Will cry...
Ditto
Heck ya that was horrible
Hello, my name is Ilya, I work in a blacksmith production in Yekaterinburg. My job is to operate a 3 ton hammer and it is very fun but also dangerous! The lives of blacksmiths are in my hands and I have to be very careful so that our team would work quickly, efficiently and safely. Thanks for attention!
Man I f**king love this channel. I think in another life, I’d love to have been a blacksmith. The history and detail that goes into this craft is nothing but awe-inspiring.
Beginner and hobbyist classes all over the world. Where you located
Why wait for another life? A forge on Amazon is 80 bucks from Mr volcano and they're pretty damn good
Those are some epic power hammers. Love the idea of a water-wheel powered hammer.
i want to tour your facility just to see the awesome equipment! this vid was so educational and entertaining!
Ilya explains the "Why" behind the "How" that something like a powerhammer works so well. His articulation in English is so precise I wonder how incredible he would sound in Russian.
A friend of mine has a 25lbs Little Giant. Whenever I see it I can't help but call it the Mighty Mouse. It's just cute. 😂
One of the wonderful things about machines like this is how long they last. Generally, they were part of a machine shop, and if a part wore out, well, it's a machine shop - you make another part.
Operator has a hangover, judging by how the camera shook. Оператор бухал на днях съёмки - камера ходуном ходит 😂
Hey, I would be very, very happy if you guys made the Conan sword, the one in the 1982 movie.
Something about a burly blacksmith talking about a hammers ambiance just makes me from ear to ear lol. Can't wait to see that old Bradley fire back to life
Fluffy microphone thingy please ! :)
all right... whos the shaky camera man???
I really liked hearing about the power hammers. I love the fact you are restoring tools of our forefathers. Great job.
Thanks for sharing
It's amazing how much you guys engage and stay true to history with your work!
Clicked on the video thinking it would be Warhammer 40k. Still a fun watch.
My grandfather's hammer ran off the ceiling with pullys, his hammer was made on France, looks like a 100 pounder
This did as well originally
fascinating to see the old fashioned power hammer!
You can see the big brother of that water wheel hammer - wheel and all - at the Saugus Iron Works in Saugus, MA. It's a national park site that gives tours and demos. It dates from ca. 1670.
8/10 would watch again if not for the tremors/heartbeat shake in the video.
Really cool to see and hear about this kind of history. Chris is also really good at explaining it in a way that makes sense to someone who know very little about it.
Thank you guys for sharing your experience. My first wakizash looks more like a regular knife but after watching the edge beveling video i have ong that looks like one.
Yes, give me that dive into history of industrial age and metallurgy!
I've used a big bradley used in a quarry blacksmith shop in southern Indiana , our area has a rich tradition of stone cutters and carvers and it was used to forge thier tools at a quarry . a gentleman save it from the scrap yard by minutes of being cut up .
Ain't no school like the old school.
5:55 made me laugh
Alec Steele strugles to repair any powerhammer
Tat Works "It´s very very simple to repair these Hammers"
Alec Steele acknowledges that he doesn't know what he's doing and he consults with people who do.
Chlapi, ty buchary jsou tak krásný že se mi i ta reklama na boty líbila.. Máte to pěkný.
It's very impressive how precise, strong and quiet they are.
Wow, those old power hammers are amazing and the idea of a power hammer running off a water wheel is really cool. When watching some of the home built hammers, it's interesting to realise that a lot of them are variants of the older hammers. Thanks for this video and have a great Christmas
Great job guys thank you 😊
These guys are not only artists, but also historians.
You guys should make a video about sharpening and repointing plow shares .
Not sure where your getting a lot of your details from but I'd love to see that done cold.
Why are babbit bearings precursors to bearings, instead of just being a type of bearing?
Why does it sound cringe to refer to an electric motor as an "engine"?
Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate what you guys are doing here, I too have a passion for antique machinery and traditional metal work.
I do however criticize some of your explanations for being vague and yet authoritative at the same time.
Nomenclature is important to get right when you're trying to teach and explain a process or a mechanism.
Some of what I'm saying is a little cheeky, but overall I appreciate what you're doing and your effort to explain these examples of powered forging hammers.
So thats what a little giant looks when its in working condition :>
And not broken from falling off a pallet
:'(
@@AdmiralStoicRum Will's Power Hammer was a Fairbanks Hammer. He has also got a Little Giant.
someone had shivering hands :o
that camera shake tho
As someone who is interested in technology and historic development I very much enjoyed this video!
Yall need a tripod! loved the video.
That's the best digest of power hammers I've seen. You guys did a great job. I'd love to see some videos of each one where you go over the "innards" with more detail -- especially that 1400's style hammer.
Very informative video! If you're going to do more of these in the future, you may want to invest in a tripod that stabilizes the camera in high wind environments. It's a little nauseating watching the small shakes in the informational shots. There's also software that does the same thing.
Keep up the great work, y'all!
Thank god I've finally stumbled upon you after all this time ... well, after a certain TH-cam channel whose name I don't wanna mention basically died and lost its charm without you. Looks like I have a lot of videos to watch and catch up on. ^^
Why avoid saying Man At Arms?
I'm not aware of any kind of falling out between them and these two.
There was an issue with Man at Arms parent company going bankrupt and screwing over a bunch of channels.
Matt and Ilya made this channel while that was being sorted out.
That was my grandfathers shop.we use to sharpen jack hammer bits when i was a teenager. ( long time ago) its a la fonce trip hammer and i can't find any information on it. My father still has it
It was nice to hear about the history of the power hammers that you own. I have never used those kind that are used on your channel, but I have used a Double oscillating Air/Steam drop forge hammers for both close die and open die forging. It would be awesome to learn how to use such a small hammer. The hammers I used were open frame ranging from 10,000 lbs. to 25,000 lbs.
Shaky cam is shaky
Great video guys! Cool overview of some great hammers
If you're wondering, 1.5 hp is about 1119W. Electrical input is similar to a hair dryer or coffee maker. Wow.
You guys are awesome! Could watch content like this all day.
That was a fascinating insight in to the different styles and actuation methods of hammers.
By my count, there were 12 particulars
LOVE the shop rundown! Those hammers are Kickass!
Thanks for all the interesting information.
Brilliant video thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The ADIDAS (ADIDARMS?) Stripes on the last hammer were a nice touch
I'd love to see more on the belt maintenance you showed at the end. I've seen plenty of belts with that sort of connection point that to me looks like a row of staples, but I've never seen it taken apart like you did there.
Awesome job guys, I loved the video it was very informative on not only the types of hammers out there but a bit on how to work and the size of material they will work. Great job once again. Keep up the good work.
Thats a nice history lesson right here, really interesting especially stories about how machining was done in past decades and so
What is this wobble cam???
That little Bradley strap hammer is running backwards at the end of the video. It will have better control if you reverse the motor so you are not fighting the pull of the motor with the slack belt pulley and the treadle.
Very cool. Now I just need room to put a power hammer.
More please.
you got michael j fox holding that camera? good lord lol... great video though. had everything i was looking for and more. subbed and liked. just get a tripod for the next vid lmao😁👍
Gentlemen, Well done! You taught me a great deal. Merry Christmas! Terry.
A zenitsu sword would be awesome to see
That’s pretty cool. Would love to see a video of the restoration process
Babbit bearings are actually still common in industry. Many old motors that are not easy to replace have babbit style bearings, and as long as the fit and finish is solid, they work great. Contemporary roller bearings are easier and can be run with looser tolerances, but they definitely still use babbits.
I'm a Metal fan, from the 80's.
I wish I could own a little giant power hammer. Sucks being poor!!
You have a growing collection of power hammers. :)
Being from Syracuse. Really dig this, and I know the exact location / plant this was made at in the 315. :)
Thanks guys, that was super instructional!
That was badass, I'd like to learn more about these machines👍😎🤙🍻
I found this to be fascinating, thank you.
Yes please more tool videos like this 😁👍
I counted 12 particulars
Awesome info 😁👍
Hey Matt, when are we going to get to see ilya playing tarkov on livestream? Would be nice to see him in his natural slav habitat
That was pretty cool I have never seen either of those Bradley style hammers the strap or oh, forgive me I forget the name with the wooden beam
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Great explanations!! Air powered hammer question, is the compressor cylinder the same size as the hammer cylinder or does it use any pneumatic advantage like hydraulic circuits do?
You should make legolas' bow !!!
Another great video but why does it feel like you are flexing on poor Will?
Great video, guys!
Always enjoy your build vids but this was a really special and enjoyable history lesson :)
Very cool!
Can you make lion head koftgari dagger
Love their work! Just subscribed!
I would love if they made the forms of the Knights nail
Did you guys replace the belt guard on that Anyang yet? Lord have mercy
we took it all the way off because of how load it was.
@@ThatWorksthat’s true they make them out of some thin sheet. I put some magnets on mine to dull the sound but eventually I need to remove it to properly maintenance
Thanks for the history
I take it that you can't really use top tools with the helve hammer? Since It would hit the tool at an angle that is not perpendicular?
Why do I feel like you guys are marketing your power hammers for Will Stelter to buy and give up on his restored one?
I would recommend a gimbal or a camera with automatic stabilization, but great video nonetheless, cheers!
general rule of thumb for production forging is 50lbs. per square inch of steel to be forged.
Need to make Mugans katana from Samurai Champloo
13:22 Looks like the lower die on the 165 has some dishing on the left side. Time to lathe a new face I think. 😀
+1 for a very educational tour
And then the original power hammer: some dude hyped up on caffeine with a sledgehammer
Please make The BAHUBALI SWORD
Ни хрена не понимаю, но механизмы впечатляющие.
Funny--- I didn't notice a shaky camera. Maybe I was more interested in content than in criticism.
Nice job, guys.
By the way, Sid will be answering phone messages for a bit while Little Giant ownership transfers from Roger Rice to its new owner. Same phone number that is on the www.littlegianthammer.com/
website.
