Best Assembly Hammer for Woodworking and etc. [Posted on 2000-05-08] I've had one of these for several years and they are indispensable when assembling tight joints. I use a pounding block in most cases, but if your not pounding too hard and it is hardwood, you won't leave any marks. I have used it on metal projects too, but I always use a wood block to protect the plastic hammer. There is loose shot in oil in the head which hits the hammer just after the hammer hits the work, offsetting the reaction. The dead blow action keeps the hammer from bouncing, which makes it alot easier on your wrist. You get more movement from a lighter blow with this hammer, as the hammer tends to follow the workpiece's direction of travel. A great tool, but I hear you can't buy one in California. (Hammer Control?)
just another tool geek [Posted on 2002-12-05] Excellent tool, really more of a mallet than a hammer. The dead-blow characteristic provides great control. Stanley does make dead-blow ball pein hammers but they're very hard to find. And yes, we can get them here in California. (you don't even have to order avocado with it, dude ;-)
