Does anybody have any experience or knowledge about a "Bigfoot" treadle hammer by Bigfoot Enterprises? It is a new design I guess by a fella named Stanley Swartz up in Illinois. The hammer head is 165 lbs but his "6 year old niece can operate the hammer with ease". The hammer head motion is straight up and down instead of an arc like most treadle hammers, and he is working on an air hammer upgrade. The hammer is fairly expensive compared to existing models however and it is a relatively new design.
