Rusty Old Hammer Restoration - New Wooden Handle

  • Опубліковано 13 вер 2024
  • I found this old hammer head and decided to give it a face lift and a new handle. This had previously been on a fibreglass handle that my builder brother had snapped, its been sitting out behind the shed for a few years now and had become quite rusty. After polishing the head I made a new handle from Ash.

    Handle install very clean. Golf Clap. Might need a bit more dome on ends to keep non-perfect strikes from making eyebrows or in this case squarebrows in the struck material. I'm sure there are smiths who strike so clean and consistent they can rock a hammer like that.

  • @frankcrawford416
    @frankcrawford416 5 років тому

    Nice job! I am wondering why some handles have a step where the head rested and some have a ever expanding taper. I just put a hickory handle on my sledge hammer and it had the taper. I am a little worried I did not quite get the head to rest on the widest part of that shoulder. Even though tight even before inserting the wedges I should have sanded the end of the handle I think. What do you think go or no go on the handle?

  • @dennisobrien3618
    @dennisobrien3618 4 роки тому

    I'm not sure why so many people seem to think the hammer head needs to sit against a "shelf" of sorts built into the handle. It should be a tapered fit that gets tighter the more it's driven on, and the wedge creates an opposite taper to lock it in place. A proper made hammer eye is shaped like an hourglass. Making an abrupt shelf not only prevent the head from being fully tightened, and creates a stress point where the handle is most likely to break. Just trying to be helpful; I've hung many hammers, axes, and other handled tools over the years, and it has taken experience, both good and bad, to learn this.

    What type of wood was used for the handle. I've got around 6 or 7 old hammer heads that I've been wanting to clean up and put handles on. Naturally lowes, home depot and northern tools dont sell handles anymore. I assume they want you to buy a new hammer. But funk that I want my old ones working again. Just not sure what type of wood will best the strongest. Thanks in advance if you'll reply!

    Why not a better choice of wood for the handle? Something that yells hard work. Looks a bit long in proportion to the steel head or is this now a purely decorative item? Just wondering with all that work you put into it one day you might need to give something a good whack or clobber and a shorter, thicker stouter handle would let that tool run as a fantastic club-hammer it’s meant to be.
