No, these are electrician's hammers

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 27 points 4 days ago

Anything is a hammer to an electrician, including their fists.

[-] EightLeggedFreak@lemmy.world 21 points 4 days ago

Am electrician. Have taken off boot to use as hammer.

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 13 points 4 days ago

These are the sacrifices that have to be made to feed the grid

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 18 points 4 days ago

100%. I ain't getting off this ladder to get a hammer, I'll beat that sumbitch with my drill battery if I have to

Vice grips for pliers
Pliers for a wrench
Wrench for a hammer
Hammer's everything else

A song for that guy:

Truly is one of the most versatile tools to own.

[-] greedytacothief@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Missing so many hammers, smh my head.

  • wedge hammer
  • stretching hammer
  • detail hammer
  • angle hammer
  • seaming hammer
  • polishing hammer
  • slate hammer
  • slate restoration hammer

I'm probably missing a whole bunch, these were just the ones I used as a roofer.

[-] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 days ago

Also missing is MC.

[-] EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

I noticed missing dishing hammer for sheet metal shaping and caulking hammer for traditional wood ship building.

[-] almost1337@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

What do you use the second peen for?

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Peenetration

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago

Anything is a ~~dildo~~ hammer, if you're brave enough.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Oh, they forgot the dildo hammer too.

You know, sometimes you got to hammer the thing in all the way.
(Don't worry if you miss and accidentally hit the balls, it's fine.)

[-] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

We use jack hammers around here for that.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 1 points 3 days ago

I don't know any Jacks :(.

Oh, you mean Mr RoadworksPowerDildo?

Aye, I'll give it a try, thx.

[-] Sensationalglyph@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Drawbar Hammer for my mill boys

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

I have a 14" crescent wrench so there

[-] prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

It, uhh... It looks like your double peen is made of plastic. Are you sure this is something to brag about?

[-] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 4 days ago
[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

It's there under "power hammer"

Yeah but that one is like tiny af. I want big hammer boom boom.

[-] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 4 days ago

TIL that finishing a shaped metal sheet by pounding it on a pedestal is called "planishing" and said pedestal is called a "planishing stake." I've seen it done I just never thought to ask what it was called, I guess.

[-] almost1337@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

Yeah, this is how shields and armor were made, as planishing doesn't thin out the metal so much.

Big Peen doesn't want you to know about it

The best one imo: the carpenter's hammer

Wikipedia translates it to claw hammer, but the built and functions are very different.

[-] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 4 days ago

Missing banhammer.

[-] hperrin@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Why is it called a ball peen hammer?

Cause it's used to hammer your balls and peen.

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 4 points 4 days ago
[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago
[-] Kaput@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

I always wondered what the ball peen hammer is for.

[-] Rentoraa@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago

My time has come.

I'm what the aerospace industry calls a "surface enhancement engineer." A fancy way of calling me a peener. I mostly work with CNC air blast shot peening machines but the principle is essentially the same as a ball peen hammer.

Basically, hitting metal with hard ball causes little dimples to form on the surface of your work piece. Hit it a shit load of times and you get dimples all over. At the end of the day all those dimples help prevent stress fractures from forming.

[-] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 12 points 4 days ago

Would you prefer us to call you a peener?

[-] Rentoraa@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Well it is the correct term. It's also funny

speaking of double peen, does anyone remember the "double dick dude" of reddit who turned out to be a fraud?

[-] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

That is indeed what I was referring to!
