Making a Machinist Hammer

Embark on a journey of craftsmanship in this TH-cam video, showcasing the meticulous creation of a hammer on a lathe machine. Witness the transformation of raw materials into a precision-crafted tool. For this hammer I used bronze, copper, aluminum, fluoroplastic, ebonite and a chrome plated rod from a shock absorber.
I hope you like it! If you have any questions on the used tools, materials or the processes, write it in the comment section - I will try to answer as soon as possible!

How do you cut those threads?

[@ElderCristhian]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@LatheLegends]

Thanks!

[@jeffarmstrong1308]

Very nice. I've some disasters with Copper in the past.
What you using as cutting fluid? Looks like WD-40 or similar.

[@LatheLegends]

Thanks for you comment! To cut copper first you need a sharp cutter and WD-40 is excellent, but it is better to use animal fats, they have very good penetration and anti-friction functions.

[@BruceBoschek]

Yours is so much nicer than the one I made on the shaper in highschool 75 years ago. :-)

[@LatheLegends]

Your feedback means a lot to me - thank you!

[@wheninodmyheadhitit]

Definatly a 10 thou hammer

[@kevinmullner4280]

the subs are too short to be read properly. Everything else: Great.

[@LatheLegends]

Thank you for the feedback! I'll make sure to adjust the subtitles for better readability.

[@kdub1953]

Yes I agree with yoyo @dealer...... if I'd have held round bar stock in a 3 jaw I would have probably got the sack!.... even so great job buddy, nice machining! 👍🏻

[@RegiPavan]

Too nice to use...

[@LatheLegends]

I think so, too!

[@yoyo.dealer757]

Seeing yhe way the stock was held in the 3 jaw for cutting the side flats definitely spooked me a little bit but very cool build regardless

[@LatheLegends]

Thank you for watching and appreciating the effort put into the build!

[@landyfish0116]

Nice job 👍
