Spring is good as is it's meant only to lift nothing else what he needs is rebound from a real piece of heavy steel for the hammer to strike that being said everything other than that is dope
The point is you can use both hands to move your work, and the treadle hammer can use a much heavier hammer. Most smiths use 2-5 lb hammers, any heavier and your arm will start to weaken.
With some reinforcement and some fine tuning you could stomp alot harder than he was. Plus you can slap a 16ibs sledge and it could be pretty strong. if u need that.
Very nice design
Gonna use this as a starting point for my own design. I like it
Awesome! Can we see it in action?
Keep making videos!!!!
Needs foot power down, spring or counterbalance up!
Nice, make one going horizontal as I lost my arm swinging horizontally
That is really cool
That's a neat design
Sick! It’s like davinci’s hammer
Great design
I dig it, but put a stronger spring!

I’m going to need the plans for this one❤
nice
Super cool 😎
Ima make this
Mi piace l'idea!!!😜 Grazie
nope, less force and not ergonomic, you cant effectively do it with your hands in the piece and your legs kicking at the same time
Ur hand can hit with harder force than that
with both hands yes, but you have to hold something you're forging. By one hand? maybe you hit it twice and u gona be done :D

Primary point is the ability to use top tools, top&bottom tools, punches, chisels, etc. with greater control and ease.
And your arm weara out faster
