Dead-Blow Machinist Hammer - With Tungsten Carbide
G'day everyone,
Finally a return to normal. Putting off the project I had planned to quickly make a new machinist hammer. I am moving the sherline out of the workshop and I will be taking a few tools with it, including the machinist hammer. I was simply going to remake it and not film it, but I rembered a few comments about how it should have been a dead-blow hammer from the start.
I had no clue if there was any practical merit to that claim in the real world so I thought I might as well give it a go and see if it being a dead blow actually matters.
It also gave me a good chance to use the hand planer, which I have been looking for a new project to use it in.
