- Today we explore the hammer drawer in our Snap On toolbox tour. From plastic to brass, to ball peen, to framing, to decon, to tack, to soft blow, to pry bar. It's all in here.
Featured brands include Snap On, Estwing, Milwaukee, Blue Point, Plumb, deWalt, Fiskers, and Shop Iron.
Almost got a sneak peak at mr. doc in the flesh lol
Love the Estwing w the red and yellow plastic heads. I use that one the most. Great selection and presentation here. Thanks!
Doc, I'm posting this here knowing its an older video. Right now, on ebay, there's a seller offering Trusty-Cook dead blows at ridiculously low prices. I bought a bunch, naturally, with the 8oz and the 30oz dog's head being the favorites. Beautifully make strike tools. Impressive quality. Really impressive for the money. Have a look. Not sure whether YT would resolve an ebay link.
What is his name on ebay
He got distracted by the sounds of clinking hammers 😂😂
Snappy hammers are great! The handles are super ergonomic and really comfortable in the hand. My only complaints are the faces seem to chew up really easily on the soft dead blow hammers, as well as the excessive flashing from the molding process.
I really like my Kobalt framing hammer. It has the slightly curved handle and the magnetic nail set. Which is actually super handy when you’re trying to nail something in place with one hand while holding a workpiece up with your other hand.
Lastly, the stud ‘twisting’ feature of the dewalt is handy. Trying to straighten a twisted stud into submission when framing. Haven’t used the dewalt, but I used a combination prybar/twisted in school.
I should do a toolbox tour.
Yes, please do a tool box tour!
I actually did most of the framing in my life with a beat up old Estwing framing hammer that I found. Later I got a newer used one (they are remarkably easy to find used), and finally overboard playing with many different framing hammers. I have property that is rather homesteadish so having a long handled hammer handy is important given all the non-precise nailing I do now. And for decon, they are great.
I use a large pipe wrench to twist studs because I can crank it down so it stays on the beam so I can both hammer and twist with only two hands.
Looking forward to your tour.
I thought for sure you would of had the snap on bronze hammer. I have the 24oz and is a very good hammer. They also have a 16oz and 32oz. If you like the snap on design they are great for all kinds of use.
As you can see from my bronze hammer, it gets little use. It's one of the many tools that I used a cheap version for years and when I got a nice on, I no longer do as much with it. I've probably built more yards of fence in my life with cheap tools that I ever will with my nice new Milwaukee.
But I'll take a second look at the Snap Ons. Thanks.
I like that little Estwing tuning fork tack hammer.
Man, figured a man whom appreciates quality tools like u with all that Snap On & PB Swiss & the like would surely have some high end Framing hammers lol. Dead On, Stilletto, and Martinez are all premium USA Made Titanium Hammers, with Martinez leading the pack just slightly by my estimation. Tho I’ve got my eyes firmly set on Stilettos newest offering, the Trimbone. Lousy name to be sure, but the tool itself is anything but. It’s a light weight Finish or Trim hammer, solid Titanium with soft grip, and now they’ve finally caught on to Mark Martinez (The man who started Stilletto, then sold it. Then opened his 2nd premium titanium hammer & tool business under his own name and seems to have retaken the market lol) & with this hammer they’ve added the ability to swap out grips should yours become damaged or worn. Neat stuff, love your channel
Pretty sure Trusty Cook designs & manufacturers Snap On's deadblow hammers.
I've heard that, but also heard Snap On makes them in-house. Either way, I love them.
The 12oz estwing rubber tip is one of the most used hammers in my toolbox along with my 24oz snap on dead blow style ball peen.
I really enjoy your videos--you do a great job presenting them. What did you do professionally before you began to make these videos?
Stratified organization!! I’m going to use that one on the wife! Lol
I like the durability of solid metal hammers but most tools don't fit my hand which is why i go back to wooden handles i can customize.
The snap on claw hammer has the best handle
Where did you google that from. The fork was good but you can use chop sticks. You use all of your tools for fuck all
Please stop hitting the hammers against each other …..not good for them
He is barely touching them. That applies when you’re hitting with intention.
You need a haircut
