Real Steel 0421 Hickory Non Sparking: A Reliable Safety Tool for Spark-Free Environments Review

I have a collection of hammers. It looks good. I have a Rosewill PC case, model Thor. My great uncle's name was Thorlief so I'm half Norwegian, my wife and I both like Marvell's Thor movies. A little fun for me.

This is a great hammer. The only downside is that the headstock, including the striking surfaces, is varnished or varnished, presumably to prevent the surfaces from tarnishing. This coating flakes off during use and the flakes fall onto the workpiece.

I was amazed that no major store or ACE hardware store in my town had a basic brass hammer so I had to order one online. It arrived as expected but left a large carbon footprint. I use it to hammer wood lathes on a Powermatic lathe. The brass doesn't ruin the tapered end of my live center while still allowing me to drive it deep into the large round bowl blanks.

I bought three of these for my various concrete grinders for installing and removing metal diamond tools in metal drive plates. Seriously, they seem well done and have

Brass hammers are meant to warp after use. It's a softer metal than steel, so you can use it to hit things you don't want to damage. Copper deforms instead of growing over the steel shaft you're hitting. I'm an industrial mechanic and I use this hammer to repair pumps, install and remove bearings and anything I need to move without damaging the finish. I've had it for almost a year now and use it every day. I've used the grinder a few times to get rid of the fungus that forms around the head…
