The Guild of Metalsmiths conveys:

A Pneumatic hammer control scheme from the AFC, Alabama Forge Council



This is an alternative valving for the Kinyon air hammer which is designed to give much better control

For those interested, Mark Linn,(President of the AFC) has given me the plans to the new air hammer control scheme for posting to the AFC web page. As of right now it is available. There is a write up and schematic drawing of the plans. This should be considered a supplement to the ABANA Simple Air Hammer plan. Thanks to Mark (dad) for all the effort and for his generosity in making them available for all to see.
