Really nice build I have been searching the net as to what type I want to build. I like yours Best. I thought I like that guy when you gave the finger to your anvil. I have been in search For a good one for years. Not paying these CRAZY prices. I,m using a huge steel block from A scrap yard. I subscribed & thank you my friend.
Looks great, wish you would have included some measurements and materials list, but Oh well, I guess I'll just have to come up with my own. Thanks for the video, wish you would have talk more though. 🖖😎
I would of used lead instead of concrete for adding weight and noise reduction. Lead really absorbs so much better than crete. But I guess cost is another factor that must be considered. Nice work fella too. VF
@@diyguru1 Shame you live far from me. I would of just given you the lead. Oh well, maybe next time. Keep up the builds for us all to see on RU-vid. VF
@@joeysanchez5926 That is how I got lot of lead ingots for free. Not really sure one can call it free as cleaning and melting was time consuming and challenging too.
Fantastic job. How tall is the post that holds the tire and how tall is the anvil (bottom post). This has been the best power hammer build on RU-vid. Yours is the only one I have seen that you can actually build from watching you build it..Hope to see more builds from you.. I am going to check out the knife build on your channel next.
For all those wanting measurements. Here is a link for a rock crusher. It is not as refined as this power hammer. It can be adapted. No insult intended to the builder of this power hammer as it is a very nice build. I’m thinking a treadmill motor and controller for a hammer mill. Including the emergency stop ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yKnTT9XtkdM.html
Awesome build. Going to make one soon. I like the tire idea. I'm going to use an old solid forklift wheel for mine I think. And figure out a way to give it adjustment in the hammer lengths by doing a swap for moving the flywheel pin location. Not sure yet. Question: How much did you spend in steel for this build?
Welding on a tire rim with rubber mounted can start a pyrolysis reaction and is a quick way to the emergency room or morgue, I'd highly advice against that for anyone watching this video.
Yep make sure you have tire deflated valve core removed. A good friends dad was welding on a wheel back when I was pretty young and it blew up and killed him be safe out there people
Pyrolysis is the reaction that happens when you apply heat to a material without oxygen. Or in more technical terms thermal decomposition of materials at elevated temperatures in an inert atmosphere. Which of course does not apply here. This does applies (in large) for making charcoal for example. What can and WILL happen is the expansion of air inside the tire due to the increased temperature combined with localized weakening of rubber. It's not just best to remove the valve, it's better to remove the entire tire to prevent accidentally weakening your tire. High pressure blowouts are pretty dangerous, especially when you are welding up close. Serious injury or even death may occur. But then again, the same applies for everything you see on the internet. USE YOUR BRAINS!!!!! DO.NOT.COPY.WITHOUT.THINKING.!!!
OHSA Section 25: Pyrolysis is a thermochemical decomposition of organic material which can occur at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen. This decomposition process only requires the presence of rubber and heat. When heat is applied to the tire or to tire components, hydrocarbon vapours are released inside the tire. As the vapours are released, the air pressure and temperature within the tire increase dramatically. These vapours are highly flammable. If the flammable vapour inside the tire makes contact with oxygen at a temperature in excess of 400 degrees Celsius, auto-ignition can occur, resulting in an explosion. Once the decomposition process begins, it is irreversible. There is no visual indication that the decomposition process is taking place. Depending on the particular circumstances, an explosion may occur immediately, within minutes or several hours after the exposure to the heat source. In many instances, an explosion can cause the tire and/or wheel components to be thrown great distances, resulting in severe worker injuries and/or fatalities as well as significant property damage.
@@ferrumchnop6617 I can't fault you for quoting OSHA, but chemically speaking that's bullshit since most tires are filled with regular oxygen rich air. Not to mention the rest of the explanation. Good enough for a regular OSHA warning, but scientifically incorrect all over. but let's just stick to "it's dangerous"
Can you write the exact dimensions of the central pillar and the impact mechanism? Thank you. Tek sad vidim u komentarima da si naš rodjače pa ako ti nije teško da mi napišeš dimenzije ovog čekića, jer hoću da napravim isti,naravno ako te ne mrzi?
What are the dimensions of the upright with the wheel attached? I would guess based on the video somewhere in the neighborhood of 6 inch by 6 inch by 80 inch (15 x 15 x 200 cm)?
good evening. My name is Javier, I find your design very interesting. You could provide closer measurements to make a piece like the one you presented. greetings from Mexico
Just a quick question. Is there a brake, or do you even need one on a light hammer like this? I'm going to be building a larger version of this type of hammer, and I'm planning a brake on mine.
Što jače stisnem pedalu (znači jače pritisnem motor na kotač) to čekić brže udara i samim time je i jači udarac. Težina čekića je 20 Kg i ne može on toliko jako udariti da mi nekontrolirano stanji materijal.
@@diyguru1 hvala na odgovoru. Nenad mi je skrenuo pažnju na Vaš rad kada smo pričali o izradi noževa. Svi alati izgledaju super tim više što su izrađeni diy,a koliko vidim krajnji rezultat je vrhunski. Puno volje i ljubavi je tu uloženo. 👍
