Great idea, have you thought about fitting a larger diameter stamp to speed up the crushing?

I have thought of that actually. I would have to machine the face of the hammer to suit the bottom of the gas bottle to get a good crush. It shouldn’t be hard though.

Cabletie, Do think you would be onto a winner if you did the machining. From one older machinist to a younger one. Laughing

It could be easily done. My dad has a lathe in the shed . I should probably get off my butt and do that .
