Anyone use the Stiletto drywall hammer? | Contractor Talk ...
2007年12月21日 · My kids like the Stiletto finish hammer the best out of every hammer they have tried as its light weight makes it very easy to control, but still hits pretty hard. They certainly ain't sinking 16's with one lick, but they can't do that with any hammer anyway. I take two licks with the 14, same as with my 20.
Newbie question - shingle's hammer / hatchet - Contractor Talk
2011年1月3日 · It looks like Estwing calls the one with the thin blade that you got ,and that I usually buy, the shinglers hammer, since you can pull nails with the blade (and cut felt etc.). The shinglers hatchets don't appear to have the blade, only the guage (thumb screw that goes in the holes). And yes, there is a drywall hatchet with a flat round waffle ...
smashing drywall in new home construction. | Contractor Talk ...

My solution is marking the drywall with a pencil and smashing it out with my hammer till i can get the casing to sit flat on the jamb and wall.

2011年1月24日 · Way back when.... in school for the drywall union, they said the history of the shape of the hammer came from the day when the roofers were responsible for installing the wood lath.

Nail gun vs. Hammer. | Contractor Talk - Professional Construction …
2011年1月9日 · While you should always have a hammer and nails at the ready, they shouldn't be your only choice for framing. While walking plates to nail joists or rafters, sometimes I will spike in a couple of handrives, just so I don't have that hose dragging around behind me, and the time difference is minimal as opposed to a gun in these situations.

Hardcore Hammers | Contractor Talk - Professional Construction …
2022年5月5日 · The reality is, a hammer is used a lot less now that when I first started. The days of all day hand driving are long gone. I have never been one to get excited over fancy hammers. I did love swinging Kent's rig axe when we were doing the travelling hammer thing though. Sent from my moto g stylus (2021) using Tapatalk
Removing stucco/cement from interior brick wall
2018年1月23日 · I’m thinking of giving this a try myself. If I fail, I can put up new drywall. Bosch hammer set at low speed, brick chisel where needed, followed by brick rub stone or MAYBE angle grinder with dust extraction, followed by white vinegar. I have the following bits for my bosch hammer. Should i invest in a wider bit like the one pictured below?

hanging drywall | Contractor Talk - Professional Construction and ...
2010年3月27日 · Question: I went by a job site yesterday to check on things. The drywall hangers were there. They were hanging drywall by nailing the drywall along the edges, and then screwing it everywhere else. Is this a good method of hanging drywall. I thought screws were always preferred over nails.
