Hello from Australia
Hi,
I’m from Melbourne Australia. Currently restoring a CAC Boomerang aircraft and dabbling in old cars. I have made my own English Wheel, and I’m in the process of building a Pullmax style machine. Nick Knight

Welcome to AMS Nick.
I checked out the Boomerang restoration over on FB, that’s quite a project!

Welcome Nick. Please post some pictures of your Pulmax build when you can. Are you using an existing recipe?

The Boomerang restoration is a veeerrry long term project. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew!
At work they were scrapping a number of testing machines and I managed to get permission to take home the remains of them. I’m using parts of these machines to build a reciprocating machine similar to a pullmax I think. I don’t know a huge amount about these machines, but from what I’ve seen, I was thinking of using an eccentric shaft and conrod. Links to other builds to get ideas would be appreciated. 486F57FE-34F8-48EA-980F-D2BB32D76298.jpg 7A570A3B-8DEE-4E35-9FEC-A4511B92EF70.jpg

Welcome Nick from your end of the earth.
 I don't know if this simple power hammer videos will help you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwZAyI2p0p4
