The way a hammer sounds also depends on the hammer maker. Pre-pressing 
the felt for an extended time makes it easier for the hammer maker to 
glue the felt and the under felt, but it damages the inner layers 
severely. Pre-pressing should therefor be limited as much as possible. 
Cold pressing the felt is the very best, as excess heat also has a 
damaging influence, but cold pressing felt is un-economical for the 
hammer maker because it takes more gluing time, and in business, time 
is money.

   Well it certainly may be uneconomical but this is the way Ray makes his 
hammers. NO pre pressing & hammers are colds pressed
