I'm REALLY curious, I intend to set something along the lines of that thing up as a Trip Hammer /Die Stomper for forging Cable damascus heats.

I like the idea of having it mounted above the work area, with a foot control.

Hilti, or Bosch make these things, no ?

I can just begin to guess what they're worth.

Pawn Shops in this part of the world are CRAMMED with tools, and Craigslist is overflowing with em', too.
