I Love a good hammer

[Will]

I have always found a use for a hammer in anything that I do with a car. If I don’t have a hammer then I find that things get a lot more difficult.
For those of you who are fans of Top Gear UK, Jeremy Clarkson’s first fix attempt for anything on a car is a hammer that he carries around with him.
I’m that same way, I’ve fixed so many things by just tapping on them with a hammer. Anyone else the same way?

I have one of those orange Snap on plastic hammers. Its fine balance between power and precision. I am not sure I have seen or used a more well balanced, ergonomic pounding tool than that.

You mean one of THESE.

I have one, it’s nice and all. But I can feel the flex in the handle.

I love a good hammer I work on Class 8 tractors. Whether it be my great grandfathers 12lb sledge. My Craftsman 3lb drilling hammer my 4lb 16″ Vaughan Blacksmiths hammer, my dads two craftsman medium size ballpeens, my first hammer a small craftsman tac hammer, or my 2 Expert Deadblows one always likes pounding on stuff.
