This winter has been cold and dry, the hammer handles are drying out, so Arco is doing hammer maintenance on his body hammers. Boiled Linseed Oil for all!! Dry handles and loose hammer heads get repaired, and uses antifreeze to tighten the heads.
This is Arco's method that works for him to fix loose hammer heads, you can do this however you want:
-soak heads in boiled linseed oil overnight
-tap the wedges back down
-wipe the handles with BLO
-soak heads overnight in antifreeze
-wipe handles again
-done, put back in rack
Practice safety and properly dispose of the rags and keep the antifreeze away from kids and animals.
