A machine like this couldn't be built these days at an affordable price. Remarkable piece of engineering long before the days of cad and cnc. I want one!
I like the simplicity. It's exactly what it needs to be nothing more, no extra added.
Amazing piece of machinery, and its awesome that it is still being used.
something about your videos are so calming, very relaxing... keep it up man!
In my opinion absolute best design I've seen yet
Lovely old machine in very good condition. Nice to see it in operation.
Отличная концепция и дизайн молота. Я думаю если бы те кто делал себе молоты видели этот ролик.То многие сделали бы похожие регулировки.👍
What a beautiful machine, I love the design, really great engineering, people need to see this machine and start making these in their backyard workshops, its far better than the tyre type you see lots of.
Is it ? I would argue that the tyre type takes half the floor space and probably hits just as hard......
@@Zonkotron But no where near as cool looking. JMHO
@@Zonkotron how do you adjust the stroke length and throat height on a tire hammer?
Really cool to see more about that machine. Can't wait to see what you make next.
Best demo of a power hammer I have ever seen! Those adjustments are what makes it! I like it!
Thanks!
Great machine. Can't wait to see another piece of art made by your hands!
Wow! That is a really sweet machine. I love the thought put into the design
First 'intro' video i've seen where nobody talks I've been subbed for a few weeks or so but hadn't got around to watching your back catalogue of videos - that's what i'm doing right now. I absolutely love the things you make, such a pure raw skill you have :)
Oh, thank you!!
Very nice hammer. Don't think I've ever seen one quite like it before. Thanks for sharing!
Wow an old and beautiful Machine.Have fun and good work.
I know I'm not the only one that liked the video before watching. Good stuff brother, keep it up and keep them coming!
Truly a beautiful machine. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like I just found the design I'm copying for my homemade hammer, thanks for sharing.
Great. If you contact me on my web page I can give you some dimensions if you like.
Thanks again, I just sent a message from your web page.
A very nice power hammer. Wish I could be able to buy one. Keep up the good work
Absolutely beautiful! Sehr schön.
Gorgeous machine. I love the various adjustments and how the dies fit.
Yes, it's very nice. Thanks
First time seeing one like that. Really neat -- appreciate you showing us how it runs.
Exactly what I was thinking. For some reason, rarely does anyone show the workings of a power hammer and its adjustments. Very informative video. Thanks for that Torbjörn! 🤜🤛
very nice. looks like it's well made. thanks for sharing
beautiful rig Mr,
thanks
Everything here is awesome! A lot of wonderful work!
Thank you!!
thanks for you video of the power hammer. now when I watch you using it I understand it better.
+dlstanf2 Great!
I need one of those! Perfect for my small shop
As I don't want to invest$$$ at 69 age. I might build a smaller on that would save a lot of hammer work.
Thanks for showing, that looks to be a versital work horse you have.
Always love your videos the most you are a great human in many ways and your love for your children 💓
Thanks for showing
Interessante rever os mecanismos das máquinas da nossa era industrial..Excelente idéia!
Thanks for the demo of all the components. Quality shots of the mechanisms and operating parameters! Didn't quite understand how the drive engagement works but have an idea now. Thanks for sharing. ~PJ
+pjsalchemy Thanks. I know, it's not easy to show without dis-assembly . There is a clutch, basically two wheels with conical contact surfaces. The treadle pushes the "outer" , the idle wheel, against the inner, drive wheel.
+Torbjörn Åhman Thanks, makes much better sense now! Cones are very good old school transmissions.
i was about to ask the same. thanks for asking and the answer. facinating machine.
Thanks for sharing Torbjon, it was since the first video that I have seen that I was wandering what king of power hammer is that. Nice machine!
Francesco MidKnight мля попробую собрать по этому образцу,огонь машина
The bent nail in the place of a cotter pin is a nice “farm shop” touch. I have used them on several occasions.
:)
Thank you
Simple but what I wanted to see.
Elegance in motion!
What a wonderful addition to your shop! The hammer has some very interesting features. Too bad such machines are difficult to find here. If not impossible. Thank you for sharing! Su Amigo Siempre.
+KillerKane Thanks. Yes good tools are always hard to come by.
very nice hammer , I wish I have one like this ! beautiful !
Very interesting machine!!
Best one i have seen. 👌
Beautiful piece of equipment, only downside is the bent nail holding the top hinge pin. I would love to have this today, swinging a 6 pount hammer to make a cross pein isn't fun after a while.
Thank you Torbjon!
I've been looking into several different styles of mechanical power hammers. This is by far my favorite. I thought it was cool but then you showed the height is adjustable... now its incredible.... Smashing really...Lol
Yes, it's a very good hammer. It has a bigger brother also with a ram weight of 40kg. Might look for one but I have no place for it :)
love the hammer, thinking of how i want to build mine and the adjustments are defiantly something i will incorporate.
Yes, it's great.
Excelente Maquina, ! Excelente video. me estoy contruyendo uno, y ver tanto detalle me ayudó mucho. Muchisimas gracias...!!!
Excellent machine,! Excellent video. I'm building one, and see as much detail helped me a lot. Many thanks...!!!
+gustavo ReyMono Great! Thanks
Nice Power Hammer!
Hey, a very nice Maschine and he works so beautiful 👍😎🔨
Nice machine. It's elegant in it's simple yet versatile design.
Yes it is!
A thing of beauty...
beautiful machine it must have pride of place in your workshop
+Alan Byrne Yes, it's a very useful tool !!
Awesome new toy!
+Britt Rossman Thanks, but it's not new, had it for a couple of years now. I got some requests to show more of the hammer so I did. :)
What a nice machine
I like the sound of it while running, some are really clangy this one isn't
Nádherný stroj.
Шикарная машинка! В отличном состоянии, хотя годков с виду прилично!
Very nice!
Cool video.
Super interesting, I would love to see the workings of it and how it works., might try and find a schematic
Vad bra du fick till den i allafall.
Detdär är en av de bästa hammare som gjorts.
+Sheep Ewe Tack. Har varit lite pyssel med mellandelen som var sprucken. Den nya lär hålla i 1000 år (ss2541) ... Jo, det är en mycket trevlig hammare.
+Torbjörn Åhman
Anledningen till att gubbarna inte kunde gjuta nederdelen då var att man sade mig att det behövde vara starkare gods än vanligt gjutjärn om det skulle hålla bra och att ugnen inte klarade så stora satser gjutstål.
Anledningen till konstruktionen var att det skulle vara ett slags multiverktyg då järn var dyrt på den tiden spå att man kunde använda samma fundament till olika typer av arbeten på smedjorna, men idag är det ju bättre att göra det solitt och byta backar vid behov såsom du gjort, då blir det mycket starkare än originalet var.
Vi använder själva två stycken, den lilla tror jag är ungefär samma storlek som din.
Dendär är till och med något bättre än BAHCO hammarna om du frågar mig (och deffinitivt bättre än Klafreström, som var ett botten napp till hammare redan från början... :D Enda jag kan jämföra med som är likvärdig i kvalitet är X-Pöltls helsmidda stålhammare, men de har jag aldrig sett i Sverige, jag fick tag på mitt exemplar via en bekant i Tyskland.).
.
+Sheep Ewe Det är ingen fara... Det var gjutjärn i den gamla, men med diverse blåsor mm i godset som förmodligen gjort att det spruckit.
Ja, det var ju rätt listigt att göra maskinen för flera saker. Tror de tänkte till rätt bra innan de skred till verket och tillverkade denna hammaren.
Ja, jag har testat en klafreström en liten stund, men blev inte vän med den alls då...
X-Pöltls har jag inte hört talas om... kul.
+Torbjörn Åhman
Just nu håller jag på med ÅSSA smörjningen till Jupitern (inte min, men kul att meka med den :D )
Dina videos håller hög klass tycker jag och är alltid intressanta att titta på, syns du vet hur man gör.
+Sheep Ewe Tack! Om du hittar en ÅSSA-smörjare så ropa till !! Jag saknar en till min Beche.
That's a nice one
I love that!
LIKE THE DRIVE ENDS HOW THEY ADJUST AS WELL AS A CONNECTION
A lovely hammer.
So very cool
GENIUS.
Thank you so much for posting this - now I know all the features I want to include in my own design for making my own out of scrap. This is one well thought out machine - the ability to adjust for the end thickness you want, be able to adjust the hammer force independent of rpm's, the circular foot pedal is a very nice touch, the easily replaceable dies that don't move about is a great feature, and I'm very curious about the clutch arrangement on the drive for the crank - could you someday post a video showing how they designed and put it together? That looks like a much more controllable mechanism than the common way of engaging a belt into a pulley and relying on belt slip for partial speeds. Thanks again, a simply gorgeous machine.
Thank. Yes, it's a great machine! The clutch is pretty simple. An idle wheel outside of a inner drive wheel. Both with a conical inside/outside (hidden) surface. When you press the pedal you push the idle wheel towards the drive wheel and the conical parts start slipping against each other. I guess the reason for conical is that you get a larger contact surface. Don't know if that makes sense?
Thanks. Yes, another reason for conical is that the interference fit is more even from inner to outer; if it was a simple face, there would be a big difference in slippage from inner diameter to outer diameter. Are the cones simply metal on metal, steel on steel, or is there a facing material or lubricant? As the surfaces get hot the slippage factor will change, but I rather suspect they compensated for that in some manner as to keep the slippage factor more constant?
Tanks!

Love it
Love the adjustment. Any one that uses an old mechanical hammer knows how handy that would be. I currently use a little giant 25# that is 102 years old.
Cool. Trusty old hammers those little giants it seems.
Супер. Хорош тем, что есть регулировки
Very nice Swedish hammer ! Nice way to change top die ! You could have both top die and bottom die held in the same way !
Yes it's very nice to use!
Thank you
Old school cool!
That machine has lots of linkage options !-)
Sweet hammer !! Hi w.chesterfield mass.
I never knew the ram height was adjustable, how does all that work on the big hammer since it doesn't have a mechanical linkage?
Excelent !!!
That's a gorgeous machine, do you know where I could find reference photos of it?
I could send you some! Send a message on my web page/insta/facebook
I bet that machine makes really thin pancakes ;)
Nice teaser, still waiting for the 3 hour motion picture from your shop though!
Tack för videon!
+dixonqwerty Ha ha... tack.
That size of tool would be perfect for my shop. Can you control the amplitude of the throw with the footpedal?
+wood and stuff Yes, the amplitude is a function of speed. The faster the ram moves the more "whip" it gets from the spring resulting in larger amplitude.
Alte maschine, gut maschine 😏👌
Oh, now I understand how the power hammer works. So the key item is the spring and if wheel rotation is quick enough, resonance in vibration makes hammer hit the anvil.
Am I correct that adjustments in driving arm attachment to the spring making resonance frequency different so the hammer hits anvil more or less frequently?
+YurNick Na, I don't think it has to do with resonance at all actually, but the spring is key yes. The faster (harder on the foot pedal) it moves, more "whip" is introduced by the spring and harder it hits. The rear adjustment makes more or less spring available, but in reality it's not so obvious of a difference.
+Torbjörn Åhman With resonance you probably would end up without control since that would suddenly apply at a specific frequency. I imagine that would be quite scary and potentially fatal for the machine as well...
+Torbjörn Åhman I mean, amplitude of vibrations from driving wheel is constant. So if not the springiness, amplitude of vibrations of the hammer on the other side of the lever would be constant too. Since the hammer amplitude depends on vibration rate, it should be a resonance effect, which is controlled by operator (so it's not scary and fatal - since you control the vibration rate by pressing pedal).
+YurNick Only hammer on the other side of spring is resonating to driving wheel vibrations, not the whole construction (which have different resonance frequency and so the whole thing is safe).
+YurNick I wouldn't call it resonance but I think you got the idea :)
I am getting ready to build a power hammer. Is there any way I could get some detail pictures? I love the adjustability!
Send a message on fb/insta/web page and I can send you some dimensions.
Nice
Es una maquinas exelente
Регулировки супер!!!
Wonderful piece of equipment - I am just wondering how many like this still be left on earth?
Братуха !!!
Извини, лень писать на английском....
Может ты это переведёшь...
Я пересмотрел огромную кучу видео про кузнечные молоты.
И я в первый раз вижу молот с возможностью регулировки по высоте !!!
Круто !!!
Это лучшая конфигурация !!!
Great, thanks!
Интересный молот!
Ух тыыы !!! Шикарный молот 👍👍👍👍
Hi. I recently bought a hammer much like yours, only older and a bit simpler. But it came without a motor. Can I ask what size motor and what kadence you run yours with? Thanks
Mine is 1.4 hp, and the hammer runs at about 275 bpm if I remember right.
@@torbjornahman Thank you very much! Very usefull. Cant wait to get it running. Cheers
What a fine piece of machinery. When was it built?
+Renan da Silveira Santos I don't know, a guess would be 1930-1940.
Ловкий агрегат! прям захотелось такой! )))
Damn..just damn!
you are a master my friend, i want to do things like you do in your shop but i live in venezuela a south american country,all that stuff are very expensive in my country i am a blacksmith too but i don´t have that tools, i'm welder and i make doors windows and any kind of work and always i wish make things like you do with iron forge hammer and anvil, i see you´re a lover of that kind of work and more what lover you are an artist, However I will try to do simple things I have seen in your videos where you only use fire and hammer, I will use an iron plate to hit two inches thick and make a forge with a back drum truck, thanks for your good videos
Thank you! Glad my videos can be of some help and inspiration!
absolutely
I would love to see someone figure out a diy power hammer.
Good
Looks like a homemade hummer)) Was it difficult to find this hammer?
:) They are quite common here in Sweden.... but sure, not easy to find nearby.
Where could I buy one these, it’s beautiful and I’m really looking for a good power hammer at a reasonable price
You probably have to come to Sweden or Norway to get one... Reasonable price is another story... they often go for $2000 +- a couple of hundred...
Torbjörn Åhman thanks for the tip!
Vad är det för typ av koppling som man driver med pedalen som håller så bra? Ser lite liknande ut som bromsen jag har i svarven.. konisk. Tycker att den borde nötas ut ganska snabbt om man inte kör på full fart så att säga.
Helt rätt, det är en konisk koppling. Tja den är inte så farligt sliten faktiskt. Den oljas in lite lagom.
@@torbjornahman Ok, tack.. är det stål mot stål eller nåt annat material? Kan vara fint att veta till framtida byggen i verkstan att det är en möjlig lösning. Sökte nu på conical clutch och fick upp en massa träffar så det var ju bra.
buenisimo
extraordinay helve hammer, lot of possibility to change power n stroke....
