Thread: Jensen 20G Model Steam Engine Running DIY Steam Hammer

I've seen some great things over the ten years I've been a member here made by you guys. Here's a pretty basic 'steam hammer' that I made and it's running off a Jensen 20G Big Power Plant steam engine. I'm tickled pink that I made this

What a great job. Can you make a slightly bigger one: a 24 oz ball pein one side and a nice big sledge on the other, that would go down really well in my workshop. What is the middle bit for?

Thanks everyone for having a look, I really appreciate it guys

Great work Jim
But Jim...does it hurt if you stick your finger under one of the hammers...a hammer is not a hammer until its hits a finger...lol

LOL

I tell you what I have search high and low for. Remember caps that came on a paper roll for your cap gun when you were a kid? I can't find any toy store that stocks them these days. You know the ones that you used to hit with a hammer on concrete to do the whole hundred shots in one hit They are now all in plastic 8 shot 'magazines'. I would have liked to have had my Grandkids (with safety specs on) put a few of them under the hammers.

You can still get those little.. 'popping throws'. The ones that look like a pea in a screw of tissue paper. Try the dollar store.

Thanks Steve, I will do.
