Oh, they forgot the dildo hammer too.
You know, sometimes you got to hammer the thing in.
over_clox@lemmy.world 5 months ago
We use jack hammers around here for that.

Maalus@lemmy.world 5 months ago
It’s there under “power hammer”
unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 5 months ago
Yeah but that one is like tiny af. I want big hammer boom boom.
Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 5 months 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 5 months ago
Yeah, this is how shields and armor were made, as planishing doesn’t thin out the metal so much.
EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 5 months ago
Dishing hammer is also important for armouring, and is missing from the picture.

At the hardware store?
I’ve heard they have matching salt and pepper shaker?

Just be careful when it comes to the automatic circumcisers.
greedytacothief@lemmy.world 5 months 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 5 months ago
Also missing is MC.
EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 5 months ago
I noticed missing dishing hammer for sheet metal shaping and caulking hammer for traditional wood ship building.
PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 months ago
Missing banhammer.
Kaput@lemmy.world 5 months ago
I always wondered what the ball peen hammer is for.
Rentoraa@lemmy.world 5 months 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 5 months ago
Would you prefer us to call you a peener?
Valmond@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Same for Soft face & double peen.
Ridgetop18@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 months ago
Soft face is exactly what it says, it’s got soft rubber faces, basically just a shrunk down rubber mallet. Use it on things you don’t want to leave marks on.
Double peen is basically just a soft face except one side is like a hard epoxy like material. Harder than the rubber side, still softer than a metal head would be.
hperrin@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Why is it called a ball peen hammer?
Cause it’s used to hammer your balls and peen.
almost1337@lemm.ee 5 months ago
What do you use the second peen for?
ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Peenetration
prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 5 months ago
It, uhh… It looks like your double peen is made of plastic. Are you sure this is something to brag about?

The best one imo: the carpenter’s hammer
Wikipedia translates it to claw hammer, but the built and functions are very different.
Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 5 months ago
Well it does have a claw, but it specifically has the nail holder.

Dead blow? I’m pretty sure that’s illegal.
_bcron_@lemmy.world 5 months ago
[deleted]Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 5 months ago
I think you missed the reasoning behind the “dead” part.
If the hammer doesn’t bounce when it hits, it’s not as lively, and lands like a dead body.
IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION@lemmy.world 5 months ago
speaking of double peen, does anyone remember the “double dick dude” of reddit who turned out to be a fraud?

That is indeed what I was referring to!

qyron@sopuli.xyz 5 months ago
Some of these I can’t even fathom what they are used for.
I"m going out on a limb and risk the engineers hammer is the tool used when everything else has already failed to separate, combine, detache, attache, couple, decouple, split or join.
Agent641@lemmy.world 5 months ago
Engineers hammer is used to smack things and see what happens. You’re not meant to drive nails or shape metal with it, but it’s used to do inspections.
For example, a structural engineer inspecting a truss bridge might go and smack every stringer or strut near the river to the beam to see what happens. If the strut jiggles a bit, then the river has loosened and might need to be replaced.
If a bit of steel is heavily rusted, the engine might belt it really hard to see if it breaks due to deep corrosion, or if it’s just surface rust.
The sound you get from smacking a bit of steel can also tell you about the material, good steel will bong and reverb, bad steel will be dull and not reverb.
