I like the chain on your hammer, beats the fishing line they come with!

I like the fact that your lineshaft base provides the correct spacing between the engine and the accessory. By varying the base/accessory dimension on other powered devices you wouldn't need any type of holdowns on them either. Well done.

Yes... nice set-up.

I always felt the D-14 was a very nice looking machine.

  The monofilament is a bit tackey . That chain is from a cheap necklace that my wife gave me . I have two of the drop hammers , and that necklace was just right to make two chains .
