Be sure and check out my website. I have several knives available on the site and all of them have a video (or several) showing how they were made!

Best power hammer Build video one on youtube. Very well explained and demonstrated. Thank you!
What an awesome machine! Thanks for the breakdown
I'm loving it so far!
Pretty slick little unit. I’m impressed and inspired to make my own. Never thought it could be done that easily. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Ergonomics note: If you adjust your hammer's height up a little, it will more closely match your elbow level and keep you from unconsciously lifting your control hand which is what is causing your upward curl.
Thats a good point, thanks for that input 👍
Your neighbors must love you
Oh they do, I'm the Mr. Fix-it on my block. Plus they all get a few free knives here and there.
@@theriversexperience9383 Yep, I’m a plumber, and I’m not going to charge anyone on my block for less than 45 minutes of my time. I really want my community to stick together; I’d hate for everyone to wind up being a bunch of democrats. My neighbors have probably made good money off my many flaud knives I have given them.
Nice addition to the shop.
I think so too!
I think the leaf spring makes a lot of sense for your shop since you do a lot of 5160. Sweet machine 👍🏻
Yup, it's a perfect fit 👌
Very cool, Steve did a great job!
Heck yeah he did!
I think the hammer is great ...... the design seems to be similar to a beefed up sheet metal forming style hammer.
However IMHO I feel it has a few inherent design limitations which could be overcome if one took design inspiration from an ABNO Power hammer.......like.....
* fixed terminal spring bushes at ends of the pivoting leaf springs tend to limit the potential of the leaf spring whip inertia and also by fixing the ends to the the reciprocating masses it will be fighting it self transferring vibration and harmonics through both the drive and the hammer.....it is better to let them slide, this is akin to sliding your hand down the axe handle when chopping and will release a lot of harmonics and binding generated by the mechanism.
* the hammer would benefit from a more substantial centrifugal flywheel counter weight ..... this will help smooth out the drive crank (make it less pumpy/jerky), I would also reduce the crank throw and adopt the ABNO Power hammer adjustable spring drive system
* the throat (the horizontal distance between the hammer/anvil to the main vertical frame) is quite excessive, this space is unnecessary and increases loads on the hammer and may eventually cause weld fatigue, hammer/anvil miss alignment and excessive vibration.
Just some constructive reflection on a great hammer build, please don’t take this as negative criticism, appreciate the channel and your work, cheers
That would definitely make you life easier. Awesome tool!!!
Thank you! It's amazing how much easier things will get.
i need to make one of these
Heck yeah.
Just came back by to say that's a good lookin shirt again.
It's an awesome shirt! I got it from this awesome knife maker.
Thanks man I really appreciate it I'm really looking forward to this
Thank you!
Awesome thanks so much Eric really appreciate it
Thanks for watching!
Grande sei il numero 1🔥
Thank you 👍
Very nice hammer!
Thanks 👍
Nice shirt.
I thought you would like that 😁
Fantastic bro!…definitely going to start making all of my knives out of aluminum….LOL!
Nice and easy 🤣
Nice machine...Only suggestion would to fabricate a foot pedal, rather than a lever..Would eliminate having to free hang leg while hammering,make it much easier to regulate pressure,also
Hmm, that's actually a really good idea. That might be a great upgrade.
The way it is, you can't ever relax while using it...Would be quite exhausting while hammering.
@@theriversexperience9383 Something similar to what you see on an industrial Sewing machine.Actually the whole drive train on one of those would be perfect,Clutch servo motor and the pedal assembly
The only difference that I would do. I would make the hammer and anvil to accept different dies, so that way you could achieve the upmost versatility out of it. A rounding, flat, and spreading die would definitely be awesome.
That's one of the things that I want to do to it.
Very cool, I've watched a few vids of other designs and its about the same level of complexity as a drop-hammer type mechanism. But this should hit a little harder than those
Best thing about it will probably be the low amount of oiling/grease point and maintenance so it should last a very long time
I like that it's nice and simple to maintain.
Hey buddy congratulations on the hammer🎉 Did you have to reinforce your floor for this hammer?? Thanks great video.
My concrete was already poured to an adequate thickness before I got it. It was a nice bonus because I originally thought I was going to have to pour a new small pad for it.
Hella cool wish I could get that foe’show!! But I was noticing your back section, more specifically the arm connecting the rotator to the leaf spring, it looks like it’s rotation needs to be cleaned up a little because it looks like it’s beating the shit out of it up & down and jerking it forward & back, just thought I’d mention it because it looks like the only potentially weak area.
That wheel is just there to lift the weight of the hammer up. So once it rotates enough the hammer falls. That momentum forces the wheel to spin kinda erratically. Again, the motor just moves the wheel enough to get the hammer raised. Then, the hammer falls and takes the wheel with it.
😎👍👍
Could you add a bigger motor in the future and give it more force? This super awesome by the way.
The Motor purely gives the motion of Hammer in relation to the Ft/ Lb's it has to lift all in relation to the weight & height of the Hammer..❗
a Larger Motor will purely increase the lifespan of the power Hammer & is cost related in inpunt of Electricity used as well as cost of Motor..❗ Different from an Grinder that has to accommodate Drag..❗
Nice Machine & nifty, I've seen some of the Cjonese Hobbiests ones made & even made by somebody local..⁉️😮 Lightframe dancing around the floor of the Workshop and going like the clappers, yoi cant even place the Workpiece onto the Anvil..⁉️🤔
I've been forbidden from the Makers Shop..told in a round about way that i approach everything like a typical Engineer..❗(only made a few helpfiull suggestions)🤔🤦♂️🤷♂️😂🤣😅 ( in Design Crit-Class we call it "Constructive Criticism" & and that's what i enjoy about Erick's sessions, we all learn) 👍🏻👍🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻
Bernard is correct. The motor is purely for lifting thw 30 lb hammer. The weight of the hammer is what makes it hit harder.
Not bigger motor, you Need a Heavier piece of Steel for the Hammer head. I have owned a 25lb and 50lb little giant power hammer 1895 and 1910 models, a Perfect Brand leaf spring bow style hammer, 50lb. And a Central Machine power hammer that was used at General Motors foundry. It had a 150lb Ram. (Hammer Head) I used to Make a lot of Damascus billets/ knives and swords. All the Best to you and your Family. ❤ From " Jinx The Wolf" Dragon & ANVIL Forge est. 1976 🇺🇸
Tha ks for sharing...inspirational design...
Quick question rough estimate on weight?
It's about 350-400 lbs.
Why am I Always frst
You have those quick hands.
Do you have an online account I could buy one of your knives
Because I don’t live in Texas

Do you do trade s
First
Heck yeah!
