    I was tasked with starting one of these that had sat for a long time. We used it for pounding 3 foot metal posts in the ground. It was so heavy and awkward that most of the time the guys opted to use a sledge hammer. I always had respect for these old pieces that were built when men were happy to have them.

    Your ability to get machines to cooperate is amazing! I have seen a similar machine that was made for packing dirt, but it operated at a much lower speed. The cylinder was very similar. I cannot imagine operating a machine like that daily to drill rock. It is also amazing that the carburetor was able to function reliably and had not been damaged by vibration.

    In the early 1970s I worked for NVE (Norwegian Hydroelectric Board) as a summer field assistant. I used something that looked very similar to this machine to anchor equipment into rocky river banks. But I used a later version with a rotary bit rather than an impact hammer. I love the total simplicity of the impact type. No wonder it starts so easily. Thanks for the restoration it brought back some nice memories for this old man! I love your channel!
