Don't forget to price in ear defenders, unlike the chap demonstrating the harbour freight one !

Rather doubtful, Ivan.
I noticed that and the fact that the short-pistoned hammer has a 2+ inch gap while doing his planishing work. That was absolutely a staged photo-op and there's no way that guy would need ear protection in that config.
Well, it IS a $10 air hammer mounted in a frame with a foot control.
It sort of depends on what you want to do with it. Works fine for my purposes.
THe height adjustment for the anvil tends to jump, but is not a real problem. The sucker is noisy, as some one else point out it would be, but that will be true of ANY such tool. To me it was worth the money I spent. jk
Hi jk, Does the foot control let you control the "bumps per minute", or, is it just on-and-off? Curious.
Thanks for your reply.
Ivan Vegvary
It is basically on/off for the foot valve. There is a needle valve to control the wacks per second.

That was worth watching! Thanks.
Hydroforming. Works VERY well as long as you pay attention to the welds and get the cuts correct. I use it with gas welded aluminum and TIG'd steel. The hard part is visualizing the part when drawing that shape on the template. You have to allow for the three dimensional forms on the template.
any pics anywhere of your hydroformed gas welded aluminum items. sounds interesting, cool.
b.w.
