jameswood 22 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) One i made, started it about a year ago but picked up a fly press (screw press) recently and got her finished. Made from BS1407 which i think you call Drill Rod in the states, we like our hammers hard! It was meant to be 1 3/4 Lb but ended up at 1.41 lb which will do. 4" long head and 16" long shaft. [/url] got a ball pein and cross pein to make now...and some axes! Edited January 12, 2014 by jameswood Link to post Share on other sites

Caden_Vekk 0 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I'm planning on making a double sided square face sledge and the only thing I haven't got worked out is the heat treatment. I'll probably wind up using 1094 or 4140 if that helps. How did you go about heat treating each face? Link to post Share on other sites
