Geoff Keyes Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I have no financial interest in these, just passing this along. Two hammers, "$1800 each. They both run. One is a old style one new. They are rough. Lots of repairs and blacksmith built make due parts." larryleelangdon@yahoo.com Geoff "The worst day smithing is better than the best day working for someone else." I said that. If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly. - - -G. K. Chesterton So, just for the record: the fact that it does work still should not be taken as definitive proof that you are not crazy.

Geoff Keyes Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 I included his email so that you could ask more questions, if there was any interest. From the pics I saw, which I deleted, they appear to be #50'ers. OK, I found the pics Perhaps that'll help. Geoff "The worst day smithing is better than the best day working for someone else."

Kenon Rain. Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 those are sweet, the pictures make all the difference, wish I could get up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Hanson Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) Sid @ Little Giant will have parts for these. Can be fixed up nice. Edit to add; My 100 lber looked worse when I got it but has turned into the best running hammer I've ever used.

deker Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 If I could I'd buy both and ship one to Sid in exchange for parts to fix the other -d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Think he'd take a kidney as payment? Maybe a bit of liver....its hardly used. I really wish I had the money for one of these. I wants me a hammer so bad. Best I can do is bribe Beau to let me use his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John N Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Think that a guy on I Forge Iron bought both power hammers and all the anvils. He is selling them on now. Have a looksy over there if you are intersted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Wheeler Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I went up to Larry's shop today and looked at the stuff he had for sale. He is a GREAT guy to talk with, and a highly skilled fabricator. Larry was the first one to tell me the hammers were really rough (I wasn't looking to buy one, but my friend was thinking about it). While they are real ugly right now, he fired up the new style 50# and it ran super smooth. The odd repairs/add-ons you see weren't done as uneducated or non-caring fixes...they were done by a blacksmith for purpose driven hammers. I have ZERO stake in this, I just wanted to add my opinion since I saw them first-hand. Larry is a first class guy and will be honest with you about whatever you ask him about.
