After 3 years hammering everything by hand, i decided to buy a powerhammer.

Nice. i bet even though its old, that set you back a bit financially.

Noo, not so, my finances are quite good, because the hammer pays his self. At last time i ave so much commissions that i had enough money to pay that powerhammer.

Uhm! Why is it so low to the ground? Wouldn't it be easier on your back if it was up a bit higher so you didn't have to bend over so much like that to use it?

The clip is online, just click the link. It's so low because the garage isn't so hight, i haven te possibilities for bigger model, but it's not uncomfortable to work with. I worked often into other ateliers, and the anvil of the powerhammer is always a bit lower that your waist (oke my hammer here is not on the hight of my waist) to protect your face and arms from the sparks.
