No, these are electrician's hammers

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 33 points 2 months ago (4 children)

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

[–] EightLeggedFreak 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana 17 points 2 months ago

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

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.

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

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.)

Not to be confused with hammer dildo (which they also forgot). Thats just s dildo with a handle at a 90° angle.

[–] over_clox 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We use jack hammers around here for that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

I don't know any Jacks :(.

Oh, you mean Mr RoadworksPowerDildo?

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

It's there under "power hammer"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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

Missing banhammer.

[–] hperrin 6 points 2 months ago

Why is it called a ball peen hammer?

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

[–] greedytacothief 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Also missing is MC.

I always wondered what the ball peen hammer is for.

[–] Rentoraa 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Would you prefer us to call you a peener?

[–] Rentoraa 6 points 2 months ago

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

Big Peen doesn't want you to know about it

[–] bhamlin 3 points 2 months ago

Oh you, Peen Peen. You're so crazy...

[–] prime_number_314159 5 points 2 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago
[–] Sam_Bass 4 points 2 months ago

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Rip my straight peen after coming out

Drawbar Hammer for my mill boys

[–] Fluffy_Ruffs 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Dead blow? I'm pretty sure that's illegal.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

The best one imo: the carpenter's hammer

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

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