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 know 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 choose sledge. I recently broke up an area of concrete that took 8m³ to dispose of it all. Sledgehammer was a very useful tool to have during this.
I tried with a pickaxe at first because I thought it was very thin and would break easily, while this was true for a tiny section the majority was much thicker. At least it came in handy for breaking up the compacted soil.

Where E-Peen?
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 11 months ago
Dead blow hammer to to the deed and framing hammer to pin it on some random idiot.
Canonical_Warlock@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 months ago
Ball Peen and Dead Blow are my EDC hammers but I also usually keep a good ol claw hammer near by just in case.

Rock. I love bolting climbing routes and cleaning up new crags.

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!

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.

Yeah post peen pic

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.

Brass because it looks like gold :p

If I’d known it was hammer time I would’ve stopped.

Straight peen and rubber

Why is the welding hand funny?
benignintervention@lemmy.world 11 months ago
If I were to guess it serves two purposes:
- To dampen the reaction when absolutely wailing on some piece of shit steel that warped
- Accidentally getting welded to things
cm0002@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Maybe something to do with insulating your hand from the heat maybe? But then again maybe not because don’t welders usually use gloves anyways?

A metal handle doesnt burn or melt.
Jyrdano@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I choose warhammer
Exusia@lemmy.world 11 months ago
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.
Coldcell@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Sounds like a fantasy to me.
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
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.

Double peen obviously.

shaserlark@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Double peen but soft face? Should both peens be hard? Or what makes it a true double peen? Sorry I’m just an IT nerd I have no idea about hammering.
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Any peen is a great peen
helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Cool list.
Never seen an electrician use an “electricians hammer”, most use a framing.
Also missing the Form Setter Hammer.
SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I use a claw hammer.
Sometimes I use a stubby claw hammer, which is also missing.
shalafi@lemmy.world 11 months ago
How do you use it? I’ve never found an application.
