Spent $140 on a power hammer attachment I barely touch

Last spring I got excited watching a demo at a swap meet in Columbus and bought this hydraulic attachment that was supposed to make my life easier. Turns out my old arms and a 4 pound hammer do the same job if I just take my time. It sits in the corner of my shop collecting dust now. Anyone else bought a shiny tool that ended up being more trouble than it's worth?

That "make my life easier" part got me, my shop's graveyard is basically a museum of tools I bought because I thought I'd be a better blacksmith than I actually am. I'm pretty sure my 4 pound hammer has more personality than that attachment ever will.
