Myself, like most blacksmiths envy those who have access to a Power-hammer. The next best thing would be a treadle hammer, but there are still many novice blacksmiths who do not have the tools, or means necessary to make one. To solve this problem, I came up with something called the Blacksmiths Seesaw. It is basically a hammer on a lever that you control with your foot. It isn't the most powerful thing in the world, but it is cheap, and almost anyone can make it.
