Views are given whichshow breaks in various sized shafts—from12 to 15 inches in diameter—with hollowor crystalline centers, even though thehammer had a falling weight of 10 moral is to use a hammer heavy-enough in forging your car and engineaxles, so that many of the mysterious fail-ures may be avoided.
