Or two, idk
Rock. I love bolting climbing routes and cleaning up new crags.
Edit: actually my favorite hammer ever, like seriously I fucking love this hammer, is what I call a machinist hammer. Because its what I used as a machinist, and machinists can make in a hour with a little bar stock, and just works the best for machinist work. Its a double peen( the double peen in the picture isn’t accurate) made from all steel. The weight and balance is so perfect for me, it feels so natural to use, unlike any hammer I’ve ever used. I still love my rock hammer tho
That double peen is soft face, harder rubber on the left, greenish softer rubber on the right. I have one just like it. I think it came with a mesh organizer to hammer the corner clips all the way in when assembling.
Pics please!
Yeah post peen pic
Sorry to disappoint, and this will sound weird but I’m not comfortable posting something unique that I genuinely value. I’d rather post a dick pic. I wasn’t trying to point out that the macro missed something or got something wrong(but the picture of the two peen is a dual face soft blow). I guess I can’t define machinists hammers because they’re whatever material and shape you want it to be. I didn’t actually didn’t make mine, I just found it in the bottom of a box of 100+ hammers of every variation you can imagine.
I choose warhammer
I will now schedule a delivery of 40,000 of them. I don’t care if you don’t want that many - or if you wanted me to stop at 30,000. You’re getting all of them.
Sounds like a fantasy to me.

I haven’t owned, tack, framing, electrician, blacksmith, chasing, power, rock, and scaling. I have failed. I must do better.
I used to collect a lot for auto body stuff. Odd hammer head shapes make handy dollys for shaping metal in weird places.
Cool list.
Never seen an electrician use an “electricians hammer”, most use a framing.
Also missing the Form Setter Hammer.
I use a claw hammer.
Sometimes I use a stubby claw hammer, which is also missing.
How do you use it? I’ve never found an application.
I work in maintenance for a hospital trust, we’re a small team and everyone does everything. I use it for putting rawl plugs in, cause I can carry it in my pocket and it doesn’t need much force to put one of them in.
Thanks, learned a new word! We call them anchors around these parts. That is indeed a fine use! Wish I knew that when I was a cable guy.
None of those. My custom 30lb’er
That looks fit for a Nordic god. Call it Yendor.
It’s just someone’s name spelled backwards
Wtf do you do with that thing
Looks like it breaks into bank vaults on the regular
What evere requires…extra ‘persuasion’. I legit use it for projects around the house. Last use was few weeks ago. Aided in breaking up my porch cement slab. Sometimes it’s used for erasing hard drives at work. Sometimes as an axe replacement for old lumber etc.
It’s a 20lb head. The original wooden handle broke one day. Had a welder friend fix the handle XD. So it’s another 10lbs of ~1.5inch construction grade rebar. It will out last me. Hoping to make it an heirloom.
Aren’t the impacts painful? I’ve used small hammers that were all steel and they weren’t there for violence unless you like waking up the tendinitis demon.
Surprisingly no. Infact it’s about on par with another 16lber I’ve got with the fancy fiberglass and stuff built in.
I think the sheer mass absorbs most of it. The rest is technique. Slightly loosening the left hand grip just before impact. Then again, not much is resisting this monster either.
I must confess to having a sweet spot for a good toffee hammer.

I want to be your sledgehammer.
I choose hammer time
There’s at least two things electricians, mechanics, engineers, and blacksmiths have in common:
- They have their own hammers.
- They do not, I repeat not, appreciate getting hit with their hammers.
Drywall seems closest to a viking weapon.
Ah, so this is what MC meant. I’ve enjoyed my time here.
I need to put in a screw, so I’ll choose the green one. It will perform as well as any other and plus it looks good.
Big hammer gives you all these flavors and vanity but I’ve spent my life around screws and they are all the same.
Where’s the hammer they use to bonk the dead pope to make sure he’s dead?
I’ve always assumed it was some sort of ornate, ceremonial hammer made of pure gold that they keep in a special chamber, but now that you mentioned it, I really hope it’s just a claw hammer they borrow from the maintenance guy.
It gives +100% damage to undead creatures and blesses all in a 3M radius
Wait, is that really it? Because that’s fucking awesome.
“Hey Frank, can we borrow your hammer? We need to see if the pope is dead.”
“Did you submit a maintenance ticket for it? I don’t see it on my task list.”
“Oh, no, but I figured if I just called you…”
“Gotta have a ticket for it; I get in trouble if I spend too much time on other things.”No matter who you are, no matter where you work, the facilities team is really in charge.
