Cengar certainly have the wherewithal to produce a unit like this but I would think if they did it would be done with a little more finesse. Compared to other Cengar products it is a bit of a club. Also seems that the planishing hammer was more the domain of the US body repair methods. That would make Weaver Bros. the creator? Maybe it is a "chicken and egg" thing? Maybe one was made under license from the other ?


Either way a great unit with factory case ready for some 14ga.truck fenders !

Yo Rick,
Now I see the Weaver in this unit..... yeh, 14ga is right on.

Many's the time the developer went to a manufacturer for production runs, only to have the mfr enter into direct selling later on - under their own label.
