Very informative, and interesting. I'd never even thought about it  :dremel:

Bernd:
Very interesting. The guy has great rythem and looks like he's never wacked his hand.

I was wondering how he was able to keep such a consistant pattern. Then on the close up I saw how he did it. The burr rasied by the chisel is used as a stop for the next hit.

Does he also hardens the files or are they files used on wood?

Hi Glen

Thanks for posting this Video  it worthy of a MM Orcar  :ddb:

Those hammers are fearsome tools:- looks as though they were forged from bananas.

Cheers
