2016 Hammer In

Here are a few pictures from the Sask Knifemakers hammer in held in May 2016.
There were participants from Manitoba,Saskatchewan and Alberta.

 

In the third and fourth picture what is that machine and where could a person get one?

 

That's Cal's hydraulic press. He has some build info here: http://www.canadianknifemaker.ca/index.php?threads/forging-press.268/
It looks like he's got a roller on the side now.

Dan is right it is my hydraulic press and rolling mill that I made.
Here are a few more pictures.

 

That is an impressive machine

 

Thanks John. A lot of time and engineering went into designing and building it.

 

Whats funny is I was reading the schematics and seeing how the flow patterns and stuff worked. Guess the old brain remembers some of that stuff

 

Awesome Cal!
