Swages are prepared in two parts, every consisting of a half round portion. The minor part, which has a tapered shank, is fixed into the hardier hole of the anvil. The upper part, which is a wooden or rod handle, is placed above the lower part. The work piece, in the form of a round rod is placed between them. Hammering is ready on the upper part, by which the length of the rod increases and become of the same diameter as that of the swage.
