Nazel Hammer

We can supply rebuilt Manzel oilers too.

We have a small supply of original equipment parts and can help source consumables like leather and cast iron rings.

We have some original prints to work from although older machines have to be adapted to their current condition.

We have worked on parts sent here and also on complete machines sent here. We have a good truck line for flat bed loads. For example the cost of sending a 3B here from Seattle was $1200.00. We can work in your shop but we prefer to do the work here.

We can supply references from satisfied customers.

Our goal is to restore these beautiful machines to run like they are supposed to- hit from a tap to a hard blow high or low.
