The one advantage of estwing being made in the us is that we get these hammers for $25/$50. I’ll trade you one of my three or four estwings for a pair of Marvel cross cut pliers!
Lmao a bunch of electricians here. A roofers hammer is certainly better for driving in long nails. Have you used the magnetic nail holder feature yet? It’s great when you are using the right size nails, though more for driving nails one handed.
I sink 20d nails with two hits and one of them is to start the nail I use a Voughan 23oz California Framer with 18" hatchethandle and milled face and if I have to do lots of bigger nails I'll switch to my 30oz estwing I love my Voughan
Crazy...they are like $100 here, and that's expensive. Titanium > aluminum any day. The dalluge titanium hammer for $120 is the best value for the money IMO.
@Addicted to Tools I get it I'm all for good tools, I have 3 sawmills, a fab shop, machine shop, etc. It's just there's a diminishing return once you get into the $100 hammers and above. A $350 hammer is not 3.5× better than a $100 hammer. I also realize we can a difference of opinion but that's much logic. Best Regards
