Home Made Steam Driven Trip Hammer doing some work flattening out 1.5mm and 3mm thick wire solder. This is fun steam driven accessory to use, a bit hard on the ears though! |

:thumbup: Just thinking about your hammers and the fact that they simply drop onto the work-piece it might be worth adding more mass to the hammers? That is naturally going to depend on whether the lift mechanism can cope. PLUS, I do realise this is a model and not a tool as such. Great job and noisy fun to watch. Oh, I did turn the volume in the downward direction. Regards, John B |

I think I've done some more damage to my hearing with this trip hammer :) Appreciate the comment cheers. |
