Re: My latest project(s) body hammer restoration

Not much of a progress report, somehow life always gets in the way. Couple pics of some no name hammer, hammer head on far right.

Ground the square end down to a reverse curve shape using a flap disc and a 4.5 grinder, finished the shaping a belt sander and 80 grit.



Painted.

Handle installed. I once again burnt the handle with a torch then stained it with Red Oak stain and applied 4-5 coats of Tru-oil. I then wet sanded then handles with 2000 grit and buffed to a high gloss.

I also sanded the paint off the flats of the hammer giving it a Snap-on kinda look.
