double peen

Heh

Remember, every 27th customer gets a ball-peen hammer free!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

At the hardware store?

I've heard they have matching salt and pepper shaker?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I have a straight peen most of the time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

That must be awkward when you're walking around.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 hours ago

Stop! Hammer time!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

Rip my straight peen after coming out

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago

Missing banhammer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Tag yourself, I'm rip.

I always wondered what the ball peen hammer is for.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

My time has come.

I'm what the aerospace industry calls a "surface enhancement engineer." A fancy way of calling me a peener. I mostly work with CNC air blast shot peening machines but the principle is essentially the same as a ball peen hammer.

Basically, hitting metal with hard ball causes little dimples to form on the surface of your work piece. Hit it a shit load of times and you get dimples all over. At the end of the day all those dimples help prevent stress fractures from forming.

Would you prefer us to call you a peener?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Well it is the correct term. It's also funny

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Same for Soft face & double peen.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 hours ago

Don't ever cross the peens.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 hours ago

Here's me just taking whatever is closest.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 hours ago

Why is it called a ball peen hammer?

Cause it's used to hammer your balls and peen.

No, these are electrician's hammers

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 hours ago

Truly is one of the most versatile tools to own.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 hours ago (4 children)

Anything is a hammer to an electrician, including their fists.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago

Or their eyes

Vice grips for pliers
Pliers for a wrench
Wrench for a hammer
Hammer's everything else

A song for that guy:

hard on equipment

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Holy shit! Somebody wrote a song about me!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 hours ago

100%. I ain't getting off this ladder to get a hammer, I'll beat that sumbitch with my drill battery if I have to

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Am electrician. Have taken off boot to use as hammer.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 hours ago

These are the sacrifices that have to be made to feed the grid

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

Just be careful when it comes to the automatic circumcisers.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

Now I'm thinking of a hammer tier list. Milled face framing hammer is clearly S-tier because you get to leave your mark

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Dead blow? I'm pretty sure that's illegal.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 hours ago

Fun hammer fact: it's called dead blow not because it's supremely powerful or anything, but because the head is usually full of loose material like BBs, and it causes the hammer to not bounce back as much, kinda like throwing a hackey sack at the floor

It's there under "power hammer"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 hours ago

TIL that finishing a shaped metal sheet by pounding it on a pedestal is called "planishing" and said pedestal is called a "planishing stake." I've seen it done I just never thought to ask what it was called, I guess.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 hours ago

Anything is a ~~dildo~~ hammer, if you're brave enough.
