Great engineering! The beast looks functional and rugged enough to get some great metal pounding in. Thanks for posting the vid, hope it all works well!
Thinking building one myself and thats inspired me more now bought plans book and good to see how you achieved yours got same stuff to build with so get my ass in gear and make it.visit Bristol on regular basis so have catch up
Hi Mark, I’m now living and working in Redditch and sadly gave up my workshop to assist in the family business, unfortunately due to changing energy requirements the family business was forced to close its doors so now I’m working with boats again and therefore the hammer is sat idle in my garage !! I love working with the boats so it’s not all bad , good luck with the build 👍👍
Mrs Perks little lad has every reason in the world to take one "atta" boy out of petty cash. Beautiful and your truck spring will still be banging about when those with the lighter trailer springs have already changed theirs. Mike
Cheers John. I shall be scouring the scapyard soon. I've just scrapped a Transit too, which had at least 2 good leaves, nice and thick they were as well.
Very nice job. you followed through and completed your project and I admire the way you so readily give credit where credit is due. Keep up the good work!
Yes bought manual and doing same .got leaf spring ,would it matter if left slight curve not happy on how to straighten really .same kind of shape as yours.im Herefordshire based so do travel to Bristol, have to see you work shop one day ..
Hi Mark, I’m no longer at the forge as I moved to Redditch to work in the family business, which unfortunately is no longer here !!! I have however kept my hammer and it’s currently sitting idle in my garage workshop at home, thanks for your comments and good luck with your build 👍
Hi there, all I did was bolt the pillow blocks to a top plate, used a 30mm bar to join across the two blocks and made a couple of "U" bolts and a top plate that sandwiches it all together. As for the rollers at the end of the springs they are made of a nylon type material and again I made a "U" shaped bracket to carry the rollers and a heavy wall tube to attach to the top of the hammer bar, mine weighs about 30kg all together(bar,end brackets and rail track hammer head ) Look up Norm tuckers one
John, Excellent job mate! The narrative is great and a bit funny too. Your hammer is one of the most stable I've seen so far. I knew you were clever enough to do it! Wish I could visit your shop to pound some iron and a few pints...Norm.
Just outstanding design and work. Some details I noted is that the anvil is removable, so if you wanted to hammer curves especially in sheet metal with the convex side up, you could remove the anvil and put in place a bottom hammer that would allow making curved surfaces. The anvil for most work gives you a nice stable platform to move work around on, that's very useful. My only caveat there is I would have to buy an anvil, and they are not cheap, so in my case I would have to fashion the bottom hammer out of scrap. I was delighted to see the no-play round bar through bored bearing for the top hammer, most of these I've seen the top hammer moves all over the place making for inexact work and sometimes unintended bends/microfractures in the work. When I build mine I will copy yours to some extent; the change I will make, though, is to use a square or rectangular pipe for the vertical part of the top hammer through a four-piece bearing where the sides and front and back are all adjustable so that the top hammer cannot move anywhere but up and down. If there's a fault to your design, it's that the top hammer COULD rotate some - that probably doesn't cause a problem in real life, but I'd rather eliminate the possibility. Your frame is so much better than any I've seen before, absolutely massive and rigid without actually being all that much heavier; there's nothing like wider webs in steel for rigidity. Well done!!
Thank you for your comment, from memory as I built this some years ago now I straightened them so that I got good travel through the rollers and as I adjusted them cold one at a time it didn’t seem to have any affect on the temper of the springs I’ve since had a change in my career path and no longer run my small forge and miss it terribly but I have no regrets
Great Job Mate!! You sound like you have your shirt tail out , Being busy which is a good thing! Thanks for sharing your power hammer. Sweet little machine!!
Great job my friend!!! To heck with buying one, this looks a lot funner to build and besides, there is a quality to guys (and gals) who can build there own shop tools instead of going out and dropping a lot of money. And I believe it add more pride and character to your shop. Fantastic idea! Cheers! and thank you for the reference to check out Norm Tucker to see the build guide
very impressive hammer, i like that you put a regular anvil there to do curving and hardee/pritchel work on the side of it, and i also agree on a nice cherry red coat of paint with maybe some black lines or sections. red makes things go faster, but black makes things more powerful. :p
That is a big unit. I want to make one myself. I've probably got all of the pieces I need already in the shop. I just need a good design and some time with my everlast welder and plasma cutter to get it done.
@TheBostonForge Thanks Norm, I'll get the beers in next time your in town ! your always welcome here in Bristol UK. One day we'll get to share those beers and have a go at some metal bashing, but not at the same time, I'd like to keep my finger's a little bit longer !! Big thanks again mate !!
John, Awesome build! I'll try and find something i need seriously flattened around the house and bring it down. Also, as a suggestion, you should paint it red - red things go faster. Its science. Andy MacGrain
Brilliant work sir! Stay busy, DON'T PAINT IT, SOMEONE *WILL* STEAL IT, As Mr. Michael Garafalo said! It's quite handsome as is! The paint might slow it down! ;-)
Look at Norm Tucker's power hammer that will probably show sections in more detail or even send him a message he may even have plans to sell by now ! will save hours on the build time and take out a lot of the guess work.
Hi sorry for the late reply, i have a small rolling machine so one at a time and nice and gently passed them through the rolls. I did it cold and it went well and also meant I didn't have to re-temper them !
Very nice. The only thing I would change would be to get a bit more mass under the anvil. Even an "I" beam on end would help a great deal. Great build, should last you a long time.
Hello my friend, the hammer is at my old workshop in the Underfall yard in Bristol Harbour. As of the 1st May 2013 I decided to work with my family in the Midlands and I'm no longer running the Waterside Forge. The workshop has been taken over by a very good lady blacksmith, so perhaps pop down and say hi ! regards John.
Hi , you need to look at Norm Tuckers power hammer also, and Norm is trying to get some plans up together to help people build the beast. I took a lot of info from Norms hammer and did a few modifications that suited my needs and build ideas. I also watched hundreds of others and tried to get even more ideas but always went back to Norm's. As I'm a one man band I don't get much time as I'm trying to earn a living, try and gain as much info from the video and see what else you need and let me no.
I've not had anyone work with me in a training way, although I've worked along side and employed blacksmiths in my company. I don't do enough actual blacksmith work as I work from a busy boat yard and smithing is only a small part of what I do. Good luck at Hereford and I hope you are able to find a placement to further your skills ! regards John.
@CitroTeam its ok my friend ! I wasn't offended by your comment, its nice to here from like minded people with a good understanding of what I'm trying to achieve on a budget "forte e feio" bit like me really !!
Very nice work John! I'll have to see Norm's video, but from what I see here it should be excellent as well! Nice work to both of you gentlemen! I hope to build myself one of these babies one day! I hope you don't mind if I borrow some of your design elements guys.
Sorry for the delay had a friend who worked in a transport firm so I just went for a size that looked right they are about 8cm wide and 1cm thick and roughly 1m long. I will try and measure them exactly when I'm back in the workshop
Hi Pietro, I gained lots of information from Norm Tuckers power hammer and he was very helpful, I think he may now have plans and drawings avalilable, good luck hope it goes well.
@dougspair Hi are you talking to me or Norm ? Any way the clearance on this one (not Norms ) is about 0.75mm-1.00mm overall, that way it tends to allow the grease to penetrate around the hole hammer shaft. Norms is quite different as his is square so you'll have to talk to Norm about his. Hope this helped ? Thanks for watching ! John.
Hi, nice work,im planing to make one like that with round shaft. just wonder if you have it going up and down inside that thick pipe just with some greas or you have some kind of insert to reduce friction? thanks
Norm Tucker, Auburn, well that's just a few miles up the hill for me here in Sacramento. How much clearance did you allow for the rod and sleeve there?
emdman1959 Due to changes in my work life I no longer use the beast, last time was 3 years ago!!. So it's sat redundant in my new garage waiting for the day when I feel the need to "re-light my fire " makes me sound like a take that fan !! Thanks for the feedback
Okay, I'm Portuguese and the translation should not be perfect. I wanted to mention that it is a tool without professional look. It is homemade tool, but serves the purpose. Here we say "strong and ugly" (forte e feio)when it is not a perfect thing in sight, but it works well. If there is some Portuguese, ask him.
@MrWarhammer1972 The hammer works really well when I get time to use it ! As soon as I'm able I'll video it in use and I'll also try and give it a coat of much needed paint !!
Belfield Farrier & Blacksmithing hi 👍🏻 The bearings came from Eric’s Bristol although I think they are a huge multi national company also supplied the housings/blocks from memory I think the shafts where stock size 30mm bright bar. Been so long since I built it I’ve forgotten exactly how I did parts of it. My career path has changed and it’s been sat at home in my garage for 3 1/2 years !! Good luck
Hi mate, I copied lots of parts of "Norm Tuckers Power Hammer" and I think he may now have plans available, top bloke very helpful well worth talking to Norm, hope this helps ?
@indet1957 Hope you do ! great tool, dont use the rsj's if you can get heavy duty box section it will allow you to use less braces although mine works well if I build another I'd source box but with this build I just used what I had. Good luck with the english wheel !
+Neil Yakuza , hi there the best tip i can offer is to watch as many videos as possible ! Norm Tucker was a really great help to me as i asked him lots of questions and now he has written a manual on how to build one. It will take out lots of guess work and you can also add your own style to his plans. Well worth the money that he is asking. Look out for Norm Tuckers Power Hammer and follow the link !!
Nice job John. I want one. I'm up in Lancs with a fabrication shop, anvil, hammers, etc, but I need to save my arms a bit !. Some plans would be great yes, though I get the drift. Good on Norm's vid too. I watched that first and then clicked your link. How many leaves (of springs) have you used and what vehicle they off? Cheers. Paul.
Eleagant simplicity, just wondering if you have provision for height adj. and or stroke? I know that you by pedal pressure can vary force of blows, however wonder if there are other S/Min with your drive setup? Thanks for the Vid cheers from John.
@macgrains thanks for watching ! I haven't decided on the colour yet, red could be good it may hide the blood splatters when i catch my fingers under the beast !!
Excellent build John! There is a bolt holding the top of the 60mm ram. Does that bolt go through the ram, or is it just grubbed down onto it? Thanks, Jerry
Great engineering! The beast looks functional and rugged enough to get some great metal pounding in. Thanks for posting the vid, hope it all works well!

Hi Mark, I’m now living and working in Redditch and sadly gave up my workshop to assist in the family business, unfortunately due to changing energy requirements the family business was forced to close its doors so now I’m working with boats again and therefore the hammer is sat idle in my garage !!
I love working with the boats so it’s not all bad , good luck with the build 👍👍
Excellent.I am looking to build a power hammer for myself also. Thanks for sharing.
Harry van Niekerk good luck and have fun 👍🏻👍🏻
Looks really monstrous and must be really pounding heavy. I really appreciate your acknowledgement of the person from whom you modelled your hammer.
doing the research to build my own . this looks like a great design and works well... thanks for sharing
What a Sweet Hammer you built ! You must be awful proud of it. There's nothing like putting yer mind to something , following thru , and succeeding !
Mrs Perks little lad has every reason in the world to take one "atta" boy out of petty cash. Beautiful and your truck spring will still be banging about when those with the lighter trailer springs have already changed theirs.
Mike
You really did a great job of making this power hammer. Thanks for posting this...Bruce
Cheers John. I shall be scouring the scapyard soon. I've just scrapped a Transit too, which had at least 2 good leaves, nice and thick they were as well.
that is one nice power hammer Mr !
thanks.
Very nice job. you followed through and completed your project and I admire the way you so readily give credit where credit is due. Keep up the good work!
I love that the base is an actual anvil. That's awesome.
doggonemess it seemed like the most sensible option and worked really well 👍🏻
Bolted straight through 👍🏻👍🏻 I appreciate everyone’s comments, glad you’re all still watching the video 👍🏻
Yes bought manual and doing same .got leaf spring ,would it matter if left slight curve not happy on how to straighten really .same kind of shape as yours.im Herefordshire based so do travel to Bristol, have to see you work shop one day ..
Hi Mark, I’m no longer at the forge as I moved to Redditch to work in the family business, which unfortunately is no longer here !!! I have however kept my hammer and it’s currently sitting idle in my garage workshop at home, thanks for your comments and good luck with your build 👍
Well John, you son of a gun, you've nearly caught me on the hits. And in half the time no less. Keep up the good work my friend.
Cheers to you!

I think this very cool.When I finish my english wheel I might try makin' one of these.Nicely done.
Thx, nice job, and even bare metal, that looks real slick!
that there is pretty nicely made:D Wish I lived out in the countryside and could do projects like that on my own aswell..
Brilliant , i would be proud of this hammer
Great to see a West Country Smithy!!!!,I'm from Radstock!
Nice work, Well built.
Thanks for that, you've done an excellent job. Just wondering why you straighten the springs and did it affect the spring temper.
Thank you for your comment, from memory as I built this some years ago now I straightened them so that I got good travel through the rollers and as I adjusted them cold one at a time it didn’t seem to have any affect on the temper of the springs I’ve since had a change in my career path and no longer run my small forge and miss it terribly but I have no regrets

Bien lo tuyo Tulio!
Well done I really like that I used a 7 cwt hammer 30 years ago
Thanks for putting my hammer on your network 👍
Agreed. Norm Tucker is a stand up guy.
Simple and beautiful. Great work.
Hi Norm, I was about to say the same to you mate !! Hope all is well with you and also hope the lad is still making you proud !
Great works going to save a lot of arm work well done
I am in the same boat. Work work work no time to play.
@TheBostonForge Thanks Norm, I'll get the beers in next time your in town ! your always welcome here in Bristol UK. One day we'll get to share those beers and have a go at some metal bashing, but not at the same time, I'd like to keep my finger's a little bit longer !! Big thanks again mate !!

That is really good
Hi Paul, I used 4 springs off a truck but as my mate got them I'm not sure which one the came off, good luck with the build mate !!
@CitroTeam its ok my friend ! I wasn't offended by your comment, its nice to here from like minded people with a good understanding of what I'm trying to achieve on a budget "forte e feio" bit like me really !!
Very Good! I can't wait to start on mine.

DON'T YOU DARE PAINT IT!
Someone might steal it!
How did you decide what leaf spring to use? I've got everything but the leaf spring. I'd really appreciate your advice.
Sorry for the delay had a friend who worked in a transport firm so I just went for a size that looked right they are about 8cm wide and 1cm thick and roughly 1m long. I will try and measure them exactly when I'm back in the workshop

Norms is quite different as his is square so you'll have to talk to Norm about his. Hope this helped ? Thanks for watching ! John.
Great!
Do you have the plans to share?
Hi,
nice work,im planing to make one like that with round shaft.
just wonder if you have it going up and down inside that thick pipe just with some greas or you have some kind of insert to reduce friction? thanks
Norm Tucker, Auburn, well that's just a few miles up the hill for me here in Sacramento. How much clearance did you allow for the rod and sleeve there?
Very Good!.
It only has grease as a lubricant with a grease nipple top and bottom hope this helps !
Looks like something that I would like to build. If I get the time and materials.
Is it necessary to straighten the spring for the hammer to work propperly, or will the hammer not work if it is curved?
Thanks, Lars
Very nice!!
I like it and I like how you give the Norm Tucker credit. very cool. how is it working for you 6 years later ?
emdman1959
Due to changes in my work life I no longer use the beast, last time was 3 years ago!!. So it's sat redundant in my new garage waiting for the day when I feel the need to "re-light my fire " makes me sound like a take that fan !!
Thanks for the feedback
@watersideforge great work!
what clearance did you leave on the main shaft ? looks awesome
Matthew O Hi mate, about 1mm clearance overall so about 0.5mm per side to allow for as much grease as possible to lubricate the shaft.
Cheers
Where did you get the wheels for your drive shaft, the wheel to the right of the pully wheel...and how did you connect the rod to the wheel...
Hi mate, all of the pulley wheels came from Eric's and also the taper locks to attach the same to the drive shaft 👍
Excelente son ustedes los que hacen progresar al mundo
Okay, I'm Portuguese and the translation should not be perfect.
I wanted to mention that it is a tool without professional look. It is homemade tool, but serves the purpose.
Here we say "strong and ugly" (forte e feio)when it is not a perfect thing in sight, but it works well. If there is some Portuguese, ask him.
Nice hammer man what size motor are you running is it a 1 h.p?
@MrWarhammer1972 The hammer works really well when I get time to use it ! As soon as I'm able I'll video it in use and I'll also try and give it a coat of much needed paint !!
Looks dam good, one thing might have been better is a bushing to keep the grease in other than that looks pretty dam fine. kelly
@watersideforge
ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT WIRE, TAPE & RUBBER-BAND STYLE INNOVATION!
@CitroTeam Ugly !!! its a thing of beauty ! and very effective thanks for watching.
good job brother!!!!!
Hi John, how did you straighten your leaf spring?
Thanks, Lars
Lars Odgaard , hi mate i did it using my ring rollers, so it was done cold and slowly, hope this helps
Can I ask where you got the bearings and axles from? I'm currently just started building one. Many thanks dan
Belfield Farrier & Blacksmithing hi 👍🏻
The bearings came from Eric’s Bristol although I think they are a huge multi national company also supplied the housings/blocks from memory I think the shafts where stock size 30mm bright bar. Been so long since I built it I’ve forgotten exactly how I did parts of it. My career path has changed and it’s been sat at home in my garage for 3 1/2 years !! Good luck
@@watersideforge thanks for reply fella I'm only just starting it and will be happy when I see it come together. Many thanks for reply
Belfield Farrier & Blacksmithing I will be awaiting your video 👍🏻👍🏻, good luck
Hi mate, I copied lots of parts of "Norm Tuckers Power Hammer" and I think he may now have plans available, top bloke very helpful well worth talking to Norm, hope this helps ?
That is a lovely hunk of steel!
But please wire brush it down to bare metal, it will look a lot better =P
@indet1957 Hope you do ! great tool, dont use the rsj's if you can get heavy duty box section it will allow you to use less braces although mine works well if I build another I'd source box but with this build I just used what I had. Good luck with the english wheel !
@boomba3 Glad you like it cheers mate !
Awesome. I am going to build one of these for my shop. Would you happen to have any tips on the stroke of the hammer mechanism?
+Neil Yakuza , hi there the best tip i can offer is to watch as many videos as possible ! Norm Tucker was a really great help to me as i asked him lots of questions and now he has written a manual on how to build one. It will take out lots of guess work and you can also add your own style to his plans. Well worth the money that he is asking. Look out for Norm Tuckers Power Hammer and follow the link !!
Nice job John. I want one. I'm up in Lancs with a fabrication shop, anvil, hammers, etc, but I need to save my arms a bit !. Some plans would be great yes, though I get the drift. Good on Norm's vid too. I watched that first and then clicked your link. How many leaves (of springs) have you used and what vehicle they off? Cheers.
Paul.
Eleagant simplicity, just wondering if you have provision for height adj. and or stroke? I know that you by pedal pressure can vary force of blows, however wonder if there are other S/Min with your drive setup? Thanks for the Vid cheers from John.
Very nice, indeed!
@macgrains thanks for watching ! I haven't decided on the colour yet, red could be good it may hide the blood splatters when i catch my fingers under the beast !!
Excellent build John! There is a bolt holding the top of the 60mm ram. Does that bolt go through the ram, or is it just grubbed down onto it? Thanks, Jerry
Fossils etc. Bolted right through 👍🏻
nice JOB I like it
Hola te felicito por el trabajo , quedo excelente, tienes algun plano del martillo? saludos.
