I saw a post of a brass hammer made from a brass plumbing fitting. Someone posted you can buy a brass head from Penn State Industries. So I looked it up 12.95 for that hammer head kit. Good deal I thought, so I bought it and turned the handle from some walnut scrap I had. One coat of BLO so far. The kit includes a threaded rod, drill a 1/2 hold and epoxy the threaded rod in the handle and finish off the turning that fits your hand. Hammer is about 10” long.
