I have one like that for sale on Ebay right now. I didn't know about it being part of a carpet stretcher.

Hello, Papaw. Yours sure looks like the one in the photo. I just happen to have the bar in the photo as part of a group of carpet stretchers/parts. Too bad we don't have the frame, we could have pooled resources!!!!!!!!!!! Regards, Lou

Hello, Papaw. Thanks for the offer , but I will pass. I have the carpet stretchers & parts up on ebay. Maybe a buyer will figure out with your hammer, & the bar that I have , they will have 2/3 of a carpet stretcher. Regards, Lou

I have one of the hammers too. I knew it was part of a carpet stretcher when I got it.
