Sue, that's an idea.

The hammer belonged to my father. He used it on the masonry jobs to nail on wall ties, and to build our 4 barns, etc. It was kind of special to him. I've used it for building countless things and building in the gardens for years. It has been a good claw hammer for decades.

I only used Estwing hammers for my masonry career. I still have two different sizes of brick hammers, and all sorts of specialty type hammers. A brick hammer looks like this https://www.google.com/search?q=Estw...w=1138&bih=562
Mine are older and don't have that yellow end cap.

I put this thread in this BIY section for two reasons. One being that I want to rebuild the hammer, and two being that a lot of BIY/DIY projects - you need a good hammer. One that fits well in your hand and just feels good.
