Hello Jamie, welcome to the site. Nice looking power hammer. Do you find the power hammer is a lot quicker than using a wheel? I find that making the sectiond of most panels is not that long a job, most of the time is spent in making everything fit together properly prior to welding, doing the detail work like swages and wire edging and dressing out the panels to a metal finish. I can see on the wing in the photo above that there is still a lot of hand finishing being done.

David
