Thats a good idea which I first considered but left it loose. Another option would be to put a handle on it. With a handle you could quickly place and remove it in a forging process without time for fastening/removing. You could even use it on top of your work piece.
Thanks! You could check out my video where I forge a rounding hammer. My power hammer is a bit small for this kind of tool though, but you have to work with what you have...
your channel fills the void that the absence of How It's Made left in me
'How It's Made' is still going on TV. I just watched 2 new episodes today.
This is great stuff! Thanks for sharing your talents!
Love your videos
its great idea and clean work :) good job.
The wife hates your video's. Everytime I watch one she say's I disappear off to the workshop for hours, come in all sweaty and exhausted 😂
Ha ha... so sorry....
Now weld a square bar on the back to fit ur hardy hole and it would be perfect
Why not make this anchor able to the base anvil? The way you did the "kiss block"?

Now THAT, is genius.
Hi, nice work.
What did you use to make the round indentation of the die?
Looking to make one also.
Thanks.

+Ray Mercado Thanks. A round/"ball" fuller I made. I basically ground the end of a piece of 56mm round stock (took a while).
interesting work. please, show an example of using this lining. thank you (used the Google translator)

What did you use to make the rounded piece used as a forming tool? And what is that piece called?
I'm not sure what to call it, a "round fuller" maybe.
What kind of power hammer are you using?
It's an old Swedish brand called "ABNO"...
Awesome! :D
Enjoy your videos very much. Can you tell us what kind of steel you've used for the dies on your power hammer?
Todd Swenson I didn't make the dies, so I don't know :) Top notch modern dies are probably H13 steel, but old ones like these I have no idea.
