If you're looking to build your coppersmith shop (or tinsmith shop), there are a handful of hammers always in use and rotation for me (and Bob the master smith, too!). Hope this is helpful if you're wondering what to have around for your projects! Below are links to hammers I use (I am NOT paid / affiliated with any, it's just what I've accumulated over time!).

These are not available online from retailers. The wood mallet was handmade by a woodworker, but this is a nice one: https://hammersource.com/th12005-solid-hickory-mallet-3-diameter-1-6-lbs-wood-handle/?sku=TH12005&utm_source=googleshopping&utm_medium=cse&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw4MSzBhC8ARIsAPFOuyWrJ5qpOxIffnljzBMlv_HaC4rv7RWh8Ob2TxDu7jn-7DFpWvYWceEaArXPEALw_wcB Ball peen hammer - any local hardware store Larger (ball peen) hammer - any local hardware store Find me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/housecoppercookware And Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/housecopper/ Listen and Subscribe or Submit to the Cookware Doctor Podcast: https://housecopper.com/podcast And if you Twitter: https://twitter.com/saradahmenbooks Or find me on the web (and shop!) at: https://housecopper.com/ For information on my books, check out: https://www.saradahmen.com/
