    Default Miniature power hammer

    Saw this vid and it just made me smile. A nice working model of a trip hammer.

    The video is working now.

    That little machine looks like it would be great for pinning razors.

    It would be cool for pinning perhaps. I'd love to see it.
    Personally I would have no use for one that small, however for me it was more about a great, clean little example of a trip or helve hammer in operation. I am kicking around ideas as I want to get into some forging of knives and such with my lad. A 25-50 lb power hammer build is part of the items I'm looking to create.
    The concepts and mechanics are cleanly displayed, (not to the scale I'd want) I dig the music, and the whole thing had like a Mr Rogers miniature world feel to it.

    I don't see much use for it. Pinning razors has been mentioned, but imo it is hitting just a bit too hard. And while pinning I sometimes need to pin specific sides of the pin to center a blade that is not centered just right.
