@@357magdad It looks like a very useful set-up.... Will have to try it.... At some point I need to make some rollers for a couple of vintage lawnmowers I will be restoring....
I showed Scoutcrafter's nesting wood hammer to my 9yr old son. He was very impressed and said he wanted to make one. I said we can't because we don't have a lathe to turn the handle. He said we have a drill press, maybe we could lay it on its side and use it like a lathe. I said your being silly. Then I saw this video! I showed it to my son and he said "I told you so!". 😛. I really like your hammer, even if it's not all wood, it is much more practical. Scoutcrafter's hammer is a piece of art. A toolman's folk art. Almost 3000 subs! Are you going to celebrate and buy a fresh tube of FLITZ?!?
You son has got a good creative mind! ScoutCrafter's hammer(s) were amazing! All of the free advertising I give them, Flitz should buy me a new tube! LOL
357 Magdad you get 6 thumbs up from my family for "IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT MAKE" attitude! Two thumbs up from me, 2 from my dad who was a machinist and two from my brother who was a welder. My dad and my brother are both smiling down from Heaven because my dad was the one who taught us the if you don't have it make it philosoph! I have pipe fittings like that at home and when I have a chance will attempt to make one.
@@357magdad yes they are. I can't wait for him to restore his new H.K.Porter bolt cutter find. I have a love of those tools made from 1900 to 1988 in their Boston/Somerville, Mass Foundry plant. It's because my dad was a machinist there in late 1950s to late 1970s!
Nice entry @357magdad. I learned a few things from that one thanks. One thing I would say is that it is much kinder on the chuck to use a bolt with the head cut off for the headstock, threaded rod in chucks can't be good.
Where to start on my comment....it looks just AMAZING. It really shows the effort you put in, it's a great tutorial and shows some true creativity and handiness. I really like the shape and color of the handle too. You did a fantastic job! Thanks!!!
Great looking hammer, your wood "lathe" seems to have worked good, and you got creative with the lathe tools. That is the whole problem watch ScoutCrafter, you and bunch of others, I get a lot of ideas but just not the time to do them.
I fought with using brass on my hammer entry. I ended up yelling at my wood bucket for calling me a fraud. I didn't use the brass, one day the bucket will regret talking to me that way. Cool hammer sir, I like the drill press set up.
Fantastic job 2 really cool ideas cutting threads with a pipe fitting and drill press Cutting threads with a pipe fitting and drill press lathe brilliant and the hammer came out really good As well
Great work as usual, that looks like a contender! Wondered where the Flitz was going to go and then I saw you polishing up the collars. Never thought of using my drill press as a makeshift lathe but thats now on my to do list. Good luck in the competition.
Magdad that is the exact set up i have for a wood lathe. But i went to Harbor Freight and got the cheap set of wood lathe tools. Don't do it they don't hold an edge. Nice job on the hammer challenge my friend!!
The hammer looks great! I like the way you turned your drill press into a vertical lathe. It did a great job of holding the stock. Where was Chuck when you were Flitzing the hammer? Thanks for sharing this.
357MagDad excellent build! I like the flitz action and the orange paint. Neat idea about the drill press lathe . Do you think it would work with hard woods? Or it it a soft wood only set up?
Nice work!.... But where is the crochet hammer handle cover? Or the hammer warmers? C’mon Mrs 357MagMom! Well done MagDad, using a “T” is a great idea! T-Wrecks
Could've done without the "Ghost" reference as I'm still mildly nauseous from the original release of the movie, but the remainder of this project was beyond reproach!

You keep being you, 'cause this project was AWESOME!
Thanks Kirk! If I could be anyone else, I'd be Batman!
You've seriously upped your game, my friend 😂👍🏻🛠️
Thanks Armando! I wasn't sure how that lathe set-up was gonna work out!

Your hammer is an amazing work of art! WOW! Looks amazing! The orange color is perfect! 👍🔨
Thanks Rob! I picked orange because I hadn't used it yet (except on the General Lee)
Sir you took it to the next level!! Turned out amazing!
Thanks Madstiles! ScoutCrafter always brings out the best in us!
@@357magdad it shows!
THANK YOU...for sharing. That my friend is a winner-----good luck with the challenge.
Thanks it was a fun project!
You are an inspiration. The orange T surprised me how it brings out the adjoining walnut stain.
Thanks Marc! I hadn't used orange yet except on the General Lee!
For a makeshift lathe, that honestly turned out really well mate!
Thanks Liam! I was surprised how well it worked!
Wow! I REALLY like your creativity! Well done! It looks AWESOME!
Thanks! UA-cam is very inspirational!
That was fantastic. I would have never thought about a method like that. Nice job!
Thanks Ben! When ScoutCrafter announced the challenge I looked around on UA-cam for ideas and the pipe tee hammer looked like a cool project!
That turned out great. I like the innovation needed to make the tools to make the parts.
Thanks RustyGun! UA-cam can be very inspiring!
I love how creative you are with getting the desired results with what tools you have on hand! Very nice hammer Magdad!
Thanks Merlin! ScoutCrafter's challenges are always fun!
That Tangerine Orange really pops!
Thanks WB! I hadn't painted a project orange - except the General Lee!
Spectacular!!! Can't say enough about this project/video... WOW! 😃👍
Thanks ScoutCrafter! I know I kinda cheated since it isn't 100% wood, but I gotta Flitz everything now!
Yours was the first wooden hammer challange video that I've watched. But IMO you win Hands Down! TY .. Newk from Kentucky
Thanks Newk! There's a lot of good entries!
That hammer came out great Magdad!! Awesome use of the drill press as a lathe!! Super👍
Thanks Steve! A soon as I saw the pipe tee hammer project on UA-cam I knew I had to try it!
Wow! You got my vote that was impressive from the makeshift lathe to the Flitz. Well done!
Thanks Tom! ScoutCrafter had a good turn out for this challenge!
Outstanding Magdad! I like yours the best of all the entries!
Thanks Wayne! Everybody did a really nice job on this challenge!
That was excellent. I saw the video on drill press lathe and wanted to try it. You made look so easy and doable. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Tony! The lathe set-up worked better than I thought it would.

Lol..he he ..that Patrick Swazey comment had me Busting up :]...Really Great Job and Superb ingenuity...Thumbs UP!!
Thanks D&R! Threw in a little magdad humor there!
Nice tutorial on the build. Nice build on your mallet.
Thanks Michael!
Patrick Swayze would be proud!
I don't know, I'm no Demi Moore!
Holy cow! What an awesome mallet....simply outstanding. Cheers
Thanks Joe! ScoutCrafter's challenges are always fun!
Really enjoyed your video. Like how you found ways to make what you needed. Thanks
Thanks Glen! Necessity is the mother of invention!
Wow magdad I’m really impressed with the homemade lathe and tools, and the hammer turned out amazing! Great job! 👍🏼
Thanks David! I got some use out of those ugly screwdrivers!
Outstanding wooden hammer. I really like the replaceable tips. I have a homemade drill press that I should take to the next level for wood turning.
Thanks John! I was surprised how well the drill press set-up worked!
Well done looks good and love the colour

That was stupendous! Very ingenious and it looks great 👍.
Thanks Frank! ScoutCrafter brings out the best in us!
Looks great, I almost went the tee fitting Hammer route instead I just went with the traditional wooden mallet but yours looks awesome
Thanks Gavin! I planned on using a brass tee until I saw how much they cost at Home Depot!
Very Cool! I been wanting to make one. Yours looks so good I think I'll give it a shot. Off to get some Flitz! Great job!
Thanks Mark! Flitz should be giving me commission!
That is very cool. That turned out very nice.

Definitely UA-cam is a gem but the Lord only knows where John got his idea from nesting hammers Amazing

Great job. And a very instructive clip. Thanks.
Thanks Carl! I learned a lot on this project!
Nice work, very resourceful in modding and making the tools you needed.
Thanks CHL! That lathe set-up worked better than I thought. I might try turning some Xmas tree ornaments for fun.

Nice job ingenuous.

Fabulous work.
Thanks! It was a fun project!

Mrs Magdad is actually working on a crochet tool set for our nephew for Christmas!
357magdad can I assume that you will post them on instagram after the holidays? Or before...
@@t-wreckscustoms3745 Yeah, I have to make a tool box for them. I was gonna show and tell the whole kit before Xmas.
very creative. nice job

Wow! Nice job man! Great tips too! That hammer looks like u just bought it from the store! (Compliment!) Nice work on making your own tools too!
When I saw the pipe tee hammers on UA-cam I had to try it!
@@357magdad now that I've seen YOUR pipe hammer I have to try it! :D I had no idea they were even a thing!

Now I got to do one like that great job
Go for it Larry! It was a fun project!
Awesome job!
Thank you!
Hi. I'm Joe Pera. And today I'm going to show you how to make a hammer.

Man! That flitz really is the shizenit!!
Chuck won't let me use anything else!
Nice job!
Thank you!
Flea markets are a great source of cheap lathe tools and chisels.
You're right! I'll have to keep an eye out now that I have a lathe!
Ingenious!
I find a lot of good ideas on youtube!
Wow! What a great idea for a hammer. Shame nothing came of mine 😕
Thanks Nash! There's always the next challenge!
Could've done without the "Ghost" reference as I'm still mildly nauseous from the original release of the movie, but the remainder of this project was beyond reproach!

We'd be doin' some dirty dancing! LOL
@@357magdad He would do the splits and you could do the flitz

I’m confused...How do you not have more subs?
I've been picking up more subscribers since I monetized at the end of July 2019.
