Estwing 22oz smooth faced ripping/framing hammer. Bought one about 30 years ago when I was doing roofing and framing work. Still use it all the time. Comfortable and durable, great for construction and demolition work. Does a nice job digging out stubborn nails. If I could only have one hammer in my tool bag, that’s what it would be.
- Comment on Downtime - Apologies and what went wrong 2 weeks ago:
Don’t fret about it, things happen. You run a great service for us. A job and a new family already add up to being more than two full-time obligations. Managing Zip along with all that is a lot. Thanks for doing it.
- Comment on I want to branch out from PLA. Should I try ABS or TPU? 1 month ago:
If you have an enclosure, I would say try out ASA. Similar to ABS, I’ve found it makes some really nice parts that are tough and UV resistant. Great for things you want to leave outdoors. Otherwise TPU is useful stuff too, and no heated chamber required. I was using it this weekend to print up seals and grommets for a trailer I’m rewiring. It’s nice being able to print up some parts I need rather than making a drive to the hardware store and hoping they’ll have something I can use.
- Comment on (Troubleshooting) Advice for improvement 1 month ago:
I agree that it’s probably a speed issue. When I first started printing, I was seeing just how fast I could go with PLA and tuning for that. Decided to try out PETG a few months later, and it was a disaster. Layers weren’t bonding properly, and the filament would bridge across points on the print. Once I backed print speed down to 50, I started to get much better results.

- Comment on Top executive shot dead outside New York hotel 4 months ago:
For the hell these executives put sick people through so they can make a buck, I’m surprised it hasn’t been happening on a regular basis. I understand gunning down CEOs in the street isn’t fine, but part of me finds it hard to feel it wasn’t deserved.
