So this week I installed some cabinets in a new restaurant in
Rochester and somehow or another my favorite hammer disappeared. It's
a small Craftsman brand hammer with a red rubber head on one side and
a yellow plastic head on the other. It sits in the hamer loop of my
Carhartt pants all day every day while I'm in the shop and I guess I
didn't realize just how much I used it. It's perfect for tapping
parts into alignment and I absolutely can't live without it now. So I
sprung for the additional $10 and got myself another. Peace has been
restored in my universe. Just thought I'd mention it because it's
such a handy tool and I'd recommend it to any woodworker.

...I love mine, too. It resides in my shop...but when I do a cabinet
install job I've got a 2lb dead blow that gets lost regularly, lol,
and gets found again or nothing else gets done!

HarborFright sells deadblows that are neon orange.

I'll bet those would be harder to lose. On the other hand if mine was
yellow with black stripes I could probably loose it.
