A portable marking tool having a cylindrical housing and a concentric cylinder slidably supporting the hammer member for delivering an impact to a marking die. A charge of air is built up in the housing which is suddenly imposed on the piston-like hammer member when the charge of air is built up to overcome a predetermined opposing load. In one embodiment, the opposing load is afforded by a pressure regulated chamber and in another embodiment by an adjustable spring load.

Portable marking tool

A method and apparatus for casting steel slugs which utilizes a measured charge of molten steel discharged centrally of a rotating table having radial channels to distribute the metal rapidly to circumferentially-spaced, individual, trunnion-mounted receptacles at the end of each channel. The receptacles are designed to have a center of gravity outside the trunnion axis when empty, and inside the trunnion axis when charged. After a predetermined cooling period, a mechanical latch release allows the rotating, loaded receptacles to dump radially to a suitable conveyor and the cycle may be repeated.
