Dealmonger: Starrett 815 Toolmakers Hammer $51.51
By Nick Carter
All2ools.com is selling the Starrett 815 Toolmakers Hammer for only $51.51. Ok, you may not need this tool around the shop too often, unless you do a lot of precision layout work. But come on, it’s a hammer with a magnifying lens — how could you not want it? And if you find yourself picking up a lens (to align your punch with layout lines, say) and then blindly groping around your bench for your hammer, this is the tool for you.

This has to be the funniest one so far…. I have worked with and around machinists all my life and never seen anyone of them use one of these……..
But Tools are tools……

I’ve seen moldmakers use them. I don’t work in that shop any more, but still have the hammer they bought me.

I think I would buy one if the magnifying lens was turned 90 degrees.
Cheers!
