Review on BOSTITCH 51 224 16 Ounce 1 Piece Framing by Avery Sharma

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not enough power for me.

Everyone's surprised when I say this little thing is a carcass hammer. I'm not super strong so I figured it would be wise to take something lighter so I don't get tired. Turns out (I'm new to this) it's a lot easier to hammer nails with a heavier hammer, and framing requires you to hammer a lot of nails. There's only 16 ounces between my lack of strength and this thing. I found I needed a little more to hammer nails with efficiency. Also, the pen is sticky, almost sticky at times, and picks up dirt and grime. I would give 2.5 stars if I could.

Pros
  • Power & Hand Tools
Cons
  • Old
