    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.

      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.

    Being in auto body repair, I love this chart. Seeing how other trades use hammers is just fascinating, since it’s kind of like a peek into their world.

    I’d never have known that a drywall hammer had such a nice blade at the end of it, or that an electrician’s hammer would look so unique.

    That said, I’d like to have seen a pick hammer. It comes in short and long varieties, which we use to take out high spots from beneath a car panel while also gradually shrinking the metal in that area, before switching sides and tapping it back down.

          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.

    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.
